Today, a few homonyms... all are pronounced so:
un seau = a bucket
un saut = a jump
un sceau = a seal
sot (feminine sotte) = silly, stupid
Examples:
un seau d'eau (pronounced so - doh) = a bucket of water
le saut en longueur = long jump
le sceau royal = the royal seal
il n'y a pas de sot métier (saying) = there's no such thing as a stupid job
