A homonym is a Word of the same sound or spelling of another, but of different meaning (e.g. bale (hay) & bale (out of plane) / tear (cry) & tear (rip) / try (Rugby) & try (attempt) / there, their & they're) [see also homograph - a Word spelt like another, but of different meaning]. It would seem, therefore, that "sew" and "so" would both be homonyms of the Word sow. FYI: A Homophone is a Word having the same sound as another, but of different meaning or spelling (e.g. pair& pear / saw & sore / to, too & two / bare & bear). [see 'homonym', above] NOTE: It would therefore seem that a homonym is a particular type of homophone.
