<span><span>Yes, the word "sand" is indeed a homograph. Homographs are defined as words (usually pairs) having the same spelling. They aren’t necessarily pronounced the same. In fact some words completely change their meaning when there is a shift in the pronunciation. But they should always be used in the proper context, since they will have different meanings. In this case, "sand" is a homograph since it can be used either "put or sprinkle sand", "polish using a sandpaper", or "a granular substance formed from </span>soil erosion". </span>

Homographs are words that are spelled the same but are pronounced differently and have different meanings. Sand can mean a grainy substance or to smooth something.

stepladder [879]
The park was absolutely gorgeous on this day, with the scent of pine in the air, and crisp, fallen leaves crackling beneath me with every step.

Joe lazed around for an entire day, filling his body with overly sweetly aromatic junk food and dozing here and there.
