Résumé :	This research work sheds light on a significant issue in both fields of semantics and phonetics which is the lexical problem of spelling English homophones. This problematic issue is considered as one of the complicated parts in the process of learning. The major goal of this study is to show to what extent the unfamiliarity of these lexical words can affect the learner‘s performance in giving their correct spelling. It also aims at testing the learners‘ ability in distinguishing between the meanings of English homophones. Through this study, it is hypothesized that second year students of English at the Department of Letters and English, university of Mentouri Brothers, Constantine 1 find many problems and difficulties in understanding and spelling English homophones because of the limited knowledge and the unfamiliarity with this linguistic phenomenon. Two research tools were used in this study in order to collect the required data. The first research tool is a questionnaire administered to a group of 45 students selected randomly from the previously mentioned population to see their attitudes towards their familiarity and difficulty with English homophones. The second tool which is the test is carried out with the same sample to check their performance in understanding, spelling, and making the distinction between them when they are contextualized or without any context. The data obtained indicate that most of students face various problems in understanding English homophones, especially when they are noncontextualized. It was also confirmed that the majority of learners are not able to differentiate between English homophones because of the luck of familiarity and the carelessness of students about this important aspect in learning English. The results obtained from this research work show that second year students of English find many difficulties in understanding and spelling English homophones due to insufficient knowledge and their lack of awareness of this very important linguistic aspect in the English language.
