    Their, there and they're
    To, too and two
    Dear and deer
    Hoarse and horse

    Words spelled the same with different meanings, pronunciations.
    I will lead the parade.
    That metal is lead.

    Here's a story from the liner notes of the Old 97s/Waylon Jennings 45rpm I picked up on record store day:

    In the late 90s, Waylon agreed to do the vocals on a couple of Old 97s songs. One line required Waylon to sing the phrase "an elixir" but he just couldn't sing it right. Finally, Rhett Miller, lead singer of Old 97s, asked Waylon to think of 2 lovely ladies making out and say "Annie licks her".

    Ok, it's not exactly what the op wanted but it's in the same ballpark.

    I am sorry but an acronym is not the same as a word. RAM is an acronym and ram is a word. Judging by your initial example you are in error of your own game. No points given.

    Not a big mistake but a chance to have some fun. Sour and sore are not pronounced the same. Your thread is fun.
