Hello everyone,
From this English corner we want to welcome you to read about some interesting aspects of the language.
I would like to start today with what some people call false friends or false cognates. They are words easily confused in Spanish because of their similarity with words in English but, which sometimes have completely different meanings.
Some examples are:
| Word in English | Traducción en Español | Se confunde con: | Traducción Inglés |
| Table | Mesa | Tabla | Board |
| Sane | Cuerdo | Sano | Healthy |
| Type | Escribir a máquina | Tipo | Guy, person |
| Vase | Jarrón, florero | Vaso | Glass |
| Embarrassing | Embarazoso | Embarazada | Pregnant |
¿Are you sometimes a little embarrased because your table is small?
More interesting facts soon. ¡Stay tuned!
