101 False Friends in English and Spanish
English speaking students of Spanish can’t help but notice the huge amount of shared vocabulary between the two languages. In linguistics, we call these words ‘cognates’.
Spanish and English have thousands of cognates, e.g. accident/accidente, matrimony/matrimonio etc. They are very useful when learning Spanish!
However, not all words that look alike share the same meaning. We call such words ‘false friends’ and they can be a real pain, not to mention potentially embarrassing! This eBook is a list of the top 101 Spanish/English false friends.
The eBook includes:
● 101 alphabetical examples of false friends in English and Spanish.
● Example sentences in Spanish and notes which explain key grammar points.
● 40 multiple choice questions, to test what you have learned.
● A brief section on the grammar of Spanish, e.g. verbs, nouns, adjectives etc.
● 63 links to FREE websites for learning Spanish.
