Homophones are best described as words that sounds the same but are spelled differently, such as "there" and "their" or "witch" and "which."  For someone who struggles with reading and writing, distinguishing which word is most appropriate to use in a specific context, as well as spelling it correctly, can be challenging.

Using the homophone support button on the ClaroRead toolbar allows users to:

-Identify every homophone listed in a document. ClaroRead provides a feature that actually highlights homophones in blue, so they can be easily identified after a document is written or as the writer writes them.

-Add additional words the user finds particularly tricky for ClaroRead to identify and correct within the Advanced Settings Editor.

-Select a homophone and view alternative words that sound the same, along with the meaning of each word.

-View a picture of the homophone (over 1000 images are provided with ClaroRead) if text definitions are not thorough enough to help the user identify the correct word.

-Have everything in the homophone feature read back to the user with ClaroRead's sophisticated text to speech capability.
