I am not sure about this question can someone help me A synonym is a word that means the same as another. An antonym is a word that means the opposite of another. What then is a contronym? a: A word made by two or more other words b: A word that sounds like another word but has a different meaning c: A word that is an antonym of itself d: A sentence that reads the same backwards and forwards

it's a word with 2 or more meanings that are opposite

I googled contronym: a word with two opposite meanings So.. that honestly doesn't match up to anything there.. B is an example of "blew and blue". While one is an action, the other is a color. Both sound the same but mean different. That's called a homophone. A seems the correct answer
