Normally you have to go by context. Here you should know that Jonah is a masculine name and באה is feminine so this must be יונה as in "dove."

Yonah can also be a Feminine name, it really is about context in this case.

Usually when it's a name the word "yonah" is said with an emphasis on the "yo" unlike here where there is no emphasis on something in the word

Why we need to put 'A pigeon' with the article, and not only 'pigeon'?

Really suprising how close Aramaic and Hebrew are. Even closer than Hebrew-Arabic so far..

If you're asking about Yonah as a person's given name then yes, they are all spelled the same.
