For example, the heteronym close has two different meanings and pronunciations in the following sentences: “We live close” and “Close the door.” In this English lesson, I will teach you many other heteronyms you need to know, like bass, present, refuse, wind, bow, and more. There are no particular rules to determine their pronunciation, and they vary in function, some being verbs, nouns, and adjectives.
