Provide an example of a pair of antonyms that are also homonyms, homophones, and homographs.

One example of a pair of antonyms that are also homonyms, homophones, and homographs is the words "raise" and "raze."

- Homonyms: "raise" and "raze" are homonyms because they have the same pronunciation but different meanings.
- Homophones: "raise" and "raze" are homophones because they sound the same but have different spellings and meanings.
- Homographs: "raise" and "raze" are homographs because they have the same spelling but different meanings and pronunciations.

"Raise" means to lift or elevate something, while "raze" means to completely destroy or demolish something. Despite being antonyms, these words share the same pronunciation, sound, spelling, and are considered homonyms, homophones, and homographs.
