A BAT is to a BAT as a BANK is to ?
BAT
BAT
BANK
Hint:
in a mirror
ANSWER: river bank.
The key analogy words have the same look, and the same sound, but different meanings.
How interesting they are! The BANK where we save money is compared to the BANK or

The words look the same and they’re pronounced the same, but their meanings are so far from each other.
That’s homonyms!
What homonyms would you choose to write and illustrate an analogy?
