    Well some of them are, like Polish and polish. I agree that different pronounciation is pretty exclusive, though.

      I’m pretty sure they’re all heteronyms in spoken English and make sense only if you use two pronunciations of the duplicated word.

      In my accent Polish/polish are pronounced differently. In what accent are they the same?
