Likewise I keep thinking I should make a
same-words-but-different-meanings list.
Like trap = stairs.
Bad = bath
Been = leg
Kind = child (but pronounced kin-d)
bang = afraid
bank = (can mean a) bench
... and many more (-;

BUM = Used to be a make of brown bread back in the early 70's (I
would not eat
it!)
