WELL.IF YOU HAVE NOTICED THE SENTENCES ABOVE …THERE ARE ENGLISH WORDS THAT CAN BE USED IN A SENTENCE IN DIFFERENT IDEAS OR MEANING..THOUGH IT HAS THE SAME SPELLING…BUT IT MAY BE OF DIFFERENT MEANING WHEN USED IN A SENTENCE.

LIKE THIS SENTENCE.." THE BANDAGE WAS WOUND AROUND THE WOUND."

The first "wound " means wrap or cover around.

The second "wound" means a cut on the skin or bruise.
