BTW, it appears to me that the difference between homonym and homophone is that homophones always have different spellings as well as different meanings, but homonyms sometimes have the same spelling but alway different meanings.

Same meaning of the terms in German. Examples: "brake/break" homophone; season-related: "Turkey" (country/bird) homonym.

So Happy Thanksgiving to all Americans, have a nice break with a turkey!

(We've had "Erntedankfest" already, see
