can you think of any examples?
no
well, for true cognates we have the words refridgerator (english) and refridgerador (spanish)
they look similar and they have the same meaning
fábrica is a false cognate since it looks like the english word fabric, but means factory
some examples of borrowed words are hors d'oeuvre (french), rodeo (spanish), and sushi (japanese)
This is the full question Below is an advertisement for a restaurant. Oops! The writer made a mistake and used a false cognate incorrectly. Read the advertisement and identify at least one true cognate, 3 borrowed words and one false cognate. Submit the list of borrowed words and cognates in French. Au Restaurant Advertisement Le restaurant de L'Etoile est près de l'aéroport. Sur le menu, on trouve de bons hors-d'œuvres, de la quiche, et des sandwiches. En dessert, il y a une crêpe à la mode, des éclairs et des gâteaux.
oh I don't know any french but I think you could look up these words in a french dictionary to see which ones are used incorrectly
yeah i could do that
