Homophone : Ame

Hello.
This is May in Japan.

It snowed heavily a few days ago,but it rained today.


We call the rain "Ame" in Japanese. 
It has a homophone.
We also call the candy "Ame" in Japanese. 
They are homonyms, but the representation in Chinese characters is different. 
The rain is written in Japanese as 雨.
The candy is written in Japanese as 飴. 

Please be careful.
