What part of the world are you from? I ask because this is the first that I've heard that `greater` and `grader` are pronounced the same and now I am curious what country you are in.
For everything in this list, there is at least one word that is not pronounced the same as the other two.
> greater grater grader
> baron barren bearing
> grisly grizzly gristly
> pedal peddle petal
> I also put since with cense, cents, scents, sense
I'm from South Carolina, USA and I pronounce 'greater' and 'grader' the same. There is a subtle difference and that difference can be more noticeable sometimes, but most of the time I'm saying them the same.
For everything in this list, its incredibly common for these groupings to have the same pronunciation where I live.
Words that are words, backwards, but are not palindromes. My boss is awesome and when I find a new one at 200am and excitedly text him, he congratulates me.
