TOO = TO = TWO shows that W and O are trivial On Fri, Sep 25, 2015 at 4:23 PM, Allan Wechsler <acwacw@gmail.com> wrote:
Michael, do you mean homophones (two words spelled differently that sound alike)? Homonyms are spelled the same.
TYRE = TIRE, so Y=I, if that helps.

Brought to mind by Wouter's question is: Consider the group generated by the letters A through Z, with the relations that any two English homonyms are equal. Prove that the groups is trivial.
Wouter's question was to show h is trivial, so 25 letters to go :-).
