What is a homophone for the word pie?

There isn't a perfect homophone for "pie" in English. A homophone is a word that sounds the same as another word but has a different meaning and spelling.

However, you could argue that "pye" (pronounced the same as "pie") is a very close homophone. It is an archaic spelling of "pie," but it is still sometimes used in historical contexts.

There are also a few other words that sound similar to "pie" but are not exact homophones:

* "buy" (pronounced "bye")

* "high" (pronounced "hye")

Ultimately, whether or not these words are considered homophones depends on your interpretation.
