Off thread as usual...

I'm new at this, and I know that you knew this!
Hah, very good examples of homophones! You're a fast learner, fast of course being a homonym as opposed to a homophone. In one sense it can mean quick, as in this instance, but it can also mean to starve oneself - and they say English is a difficult language!

One could hardly describe GG as an anglophone - I believe she hails (another homonym of course) from Melbourne...
