lol that's not a homophone

dare/their/there, they're :)

dare is said different from the others isn't it?


yeah it seems that language pronunciation is going to come into affect here. Dare would not be considered a homophone in this case. at least not here.

The key to remembering homophones is its not a word that rhymes but is pronounced EXACTLY the same way.

hair / hare
