There's tons of words with more than one meaning. Just open a dictionary to any page and select a random word, it's probably going to have more than one meaning. One that's used quite often though is Love.

How about words that are spelled the same but pronounced differently according to how they are used?

Like read.

I like to read a good book.

I just read a good book.
