Answer:

An homonym is a word that has the same sound as other one.

Explanation:

Many times we believe that homonyms are people with the same name, but the real meaning of homonym is a word that sounds the same as the other one but is written differently. An example of this is Right/ write. Both sound the same however the mean extremely different things. They are not synonyms, because they are different things.

Hello!

Homonyms are words that are either spelled or said the same but have different meanings.

Example 1: Two/to/too (all pronounced the same)
-Two is used when referring to the number 2.
-Too is used as "also". (ex. I am going to the movie theater too)
-to is used as an infinitive or a noun right before a verb.

Example 2: bow/bow (spelled the same but have different meanings & are pronounced differently.)
-bow (1): a hair accessory
-bow(2): to bend over

I hope this helps you! Feel free to comment or PM me if you have any additional questions!

What ultimately motivates brutus to join the conspiracy
coldgirl [10]

Republican by nature, Brutus never tried to hide his political convictions. Married to Cato's daughter, his cousin sister Porcia, he wrote a text extolling the qualities of his deceased father-in-law. Cesar was very fond of him and respected his opinions very much. However, Brutus, like many other senators, was not satisfied with the state of the Republic. Cesar had been appointed perpetual dictator and had passed several laws that concentrated power in his hands. It was rumored that only the crown was missing to match any king. The final period of the monarchy in Rome was a bad memory. The Romans had replaced royalty with the Republic and the more traditional did not want a return to such a system. Brutus was finally motivated to join the conspiracy by anonymous letters sent to him in which Rome asked for help. Brutus started a conspiracy against César along with his brother-in-law and friend Gaius Cassius Longinus and other senators. In the Ides of March (March 15, 44 BC), a group of senators, including Brutus, murdered César in the theater of Pompey.
