Homophones

Today is laundry day and clothing choices were in short supply for Landis. I handed him a navy blue shirt to put on, and Landis asked if it was his motorcycle shirt, which is the same color.

"No, Landis," I said, "this is a plain shirt."

Landis finished putting the shirt on, looked down and then back at me, confused. "Monni," he asked, "where is the plane?"

Wouldn't that be a homophone? I thought homonyms had the same spelling as well...?

Good catch, Paul. I will change the title.

Wasn't Paul home schooled well?
