摘要：AbstractThe homophones existing in English language are investigated and classified in this study. It is analysed from different angles whether they are completely overlapped, partially similar or wrongly assumed to be homophonous. In some categories the absence or presence of a vowel causes a semiphonous group is formed. Some of the classified groups are named based on whether they come from British dialect or American. There are various kinds of semiphonous pairs, which are caused by the nonnative or near-native speakers’ mistakes. Furthermore, a remarkable portion of homophonous pairs or groups is categorized based on their parts of speech whether they are consisted of a“noun- noun” combination or an “adjective-verb” frame.
