Best Answer

Although the words plate and plait are pronounced the same, their meanings are entirely different and unrelated. A plate is a solid object, often a dish used to serve food; it can be an armor plate which is a heavy structure that deflects bullets or other forms of attack. To plait is to braid, to form into a woven structure, usually done with hair.
