(n.) A word having the same sound as another, but differing from it in meaning; as the noun bear and the verb bear.
Example Sentences:

Homonymous
Definition:
(a.) Having the same name or designation; standing in the same relation; -- opposed to heteronymous.
(a.) Having the same name or designation, but different meaning or relation; hence, equivocal; ambiguous.
