Answered by GPT-4o mini
A homographic pun is a type of wordplay that relies on words that are spelled the same but have different meanings, and often pronounced differently. An example would be the sentence "The tear in the fabric was a real tear." Here, "tear" can mean both a rip in the fabric and the act of shedding a tear, creating a humorous or clever twist based on its different meanings. This type of pun plays with the multiple definitions of the same spelled word to create humor or wit.
