Homographs are words that are spelled the same but have different meanings and sometimes different pronunciations.

From the pairs you've provided:

  1. yes, no - Not homographs.
  2. yes, no - Not homographs.
  3. their, there - Not homographs (different spellings).
  4. their, there - Not homographs (different spellings).
  5. bat, bat - Could be homographs, but typically they have the same pronunciation and different meanings (e.g., a flying mammal and a baseball bat).
  6. bat, bat - Same as above.
  7. map, tap - Not homographs.

So, the pair that could be considered as homographs is bat, bat.
