False
Cognates in Spanish
| "Spanish and English have literally thousands of cognates, words that are
basically the same in both languages, having the same etymology and similar
meanings. But combinations such as decepción and "deception" are so-called
false cognates — known more precisely as "false friends" or falsos amigos —
word pairs that look like they might mean the same thing but don't. They can
be confusing, and if you make the mistake of using them in speech or writing
you're likely to be misunderstood." |
