For instance, both German and English have the word fast, but the German word means "almost." This is a glossary of the many German-English "false friends" and other words that can be confusing. But don't forget that there are also many genuine cognates shared by German and English. (Note: Technically and linguistically, cognate words have the same root or "ancestor," but for our purposes we mean any "false friend" that can confuse people learning a second language because of its close resemblance to a word in their own language.) 2008-10-13 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/677811 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/613797 Cognates, paired adjectives. 2008-05-03 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/613797 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/528855 French False Cognates to study for the SAT IIs 2007-11-01 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/528855 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/457886 Words that look like English, BUT ARE NOT! 2007-04-12 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/457886 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/326012 French false friends 2 2006-01-22 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/326012 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/326016 French False Friends 3 2006-01-22 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/326016 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/280248 Intensive French 2005-04-10 http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/view/280248
