Show us a word that has more than one meaning, though its pronunciation remains the same. The spelling can be the same, or not. There are so many words like that.

Example:
Bow - a curved shape
Bow - an item used in archery
Bow - a fancy shape for a ribbon
Beau - a boyfriend
Bo - a first name

Notice that I didn't include bow (bending down from the waist to show respect or appreciation), even though it's spelled the same, because it's pronounced differently.

This is not alphabetical; just use any word that pops into your head. (One word at a time, please, to avoid hundred-word lists)
 

Bread - Bred

(Too much like the homonyms game, maybe? I was thinking of longer lists of words, but maybe there aren't that many)
 

Screen - To show a movie
Screen - A protective panel to keep noise or bugs out
Screen - To select from a group
 
High - A lot of altitude
High - The state people get in from using recreational drugs
High - A way of describing heat
High - Pitch of a sound
High - A great number or quantity
Hi - Hello
