Words are selected that have at least two different referents in the world and are laid out on a spread to emphasise the narrowness of language with respect to the width of the world. So, a cataract is at once an eye disease and a waterfall. A bat is an animal and the tool used in baseball. Basket is a woven item and a sport. Bark is the verse of dogs and the outermost layer of tree trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore being bound in a book, different combinations of photographs were used to teach children with autism and migrants English as a foreign language by relying on images rather than text. Visual pairings were selected based on a combination of educational incisiveness and irony facilitating the process of learning. Photographs can be used as prompts for conversations during language classes, and as a memory game for language development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[publisher's note]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shibboleth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57358353301844,"sku":"A8B-37592","price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1072\/9609\/6596\/files\/Homographs.png?v=1790814895","url":"https:\/\/after8books.com\/products\/homographs-english","provider":"After 8 Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
