HOMOPHONE SUPPORT
Homophone support is a fundamental element of WordSmith. Many people
get confused with like sounding words. Wordsmith's homophone support
reduces confusion between like sounding words with different meanings.
This feature provides audible definitions and color-coding of all
homophones. 1400 of these are listed as standard. The Same Sounding
Words Panel shows the list of words that can be confused and a
definition for each one to help pick the one you want to use.
By identifying and providing audible definitions of homophones
WordSmith ensures you are using the correct word in context.
How to check for Homophones with WordSmith
To check your text for homophones select the text and click on the
Homophone button. This will highlight all homophones. By right clicking
in Word 2000/XP on any of the highlighted homophones the Same Sounding
Words window will appear. ( In Word 97 click on the highlighted
homophone and then the Homophone button.)
This will show a list of the words most commonly confused with the
selected word. By selecting any of the words in the list and clicking on
the Speak button you can have the word and meaning read to you. Once you
have found the word that you need it is simply a matter of clicking on
the Replace button to have the word placed in to your text.
It is possible to edit the homophones within WordSmith by clicking on
the Options button in the Same Sounding Words panel. This will extend
the panel so you can search for a word.
