Which term matches the description 'same written form, different meaning'?

• A. Dyslexia
• B. Homograph
• C. Semantic
• D. Homonym

Answer: (B)

This item tests understanding of terms for word forms that look the same in print but carry different meanings. That description fits homographs: words that are spelled identically yet refer to different concepts and often have different pronunciations. For example, lead can mean to guide or it can be the metal, and while they’re written the same, they represent different ideas. Dyslexia describes a reading difficulty, not a relationship between words’ spellings. Semantic concerns meaning in general, not the specific written form. A homonym is a broader label sometimes used for words that sound the same (and may or may not be spelled the same), but the clue here points to the same written form with different meanings. Thus, the term that matches is homograph.
