Help with words that sound the same

Overviews software that helps with Homophones - words that sound the same but have different meanings

Instructions

People often rely on a spellchecker to assist them with errors but unfortunately a spellchecker will only pick up on words that are spelt incorrectly and not words that are used incorrectly, as in the case with homophones - for example ' there ', ' their ' and ' they're '.

RWord Homophone checker

Various software programs such as RWord can identify the homophones in your text and give you a definition of each one. You can then click on the desired option and that word will be updated in your document.

RWord is easy to use and inexpensive.

Text Help

Unlike RWord, TextHelp also enables you to have the homophone definitions, as well as other text such as the text in your document, to be read using speech output.
