Homographs

[kolatubosun]

Sometimes, a name/word has two different tonal patterns, thus two different meanings. Names like Ọmọ́dára/Ọmọ́dárà, Adésọ́lá/Adéṣọlá. We call them homographs. Because of how the names are currently indexed, there can only be one entry for these homograph instances. And because of the way the audio icon is currently placed, you can only play one pronunciation.

Suggestion: Let there be a checkbox, in the dashboard entry edit mode, that one can check to show that a name is a homograph. This then activates two different functionalities. 1. When the name is published, a "homograph" tag is shown on the name, on the main site, in a prominent place. And 2. On the dashboard, when the checkbox is ticked, the entry fields are duplicated, from "meaning" down to the last one "web link". This thus allows each name to be defined separately. And when it is published, users can see both entries, following each other, each with its own different audio.

I'll be glad to describe this in some more detail with anyone interested in helping implement it.
