Spanish 'ropa' isn't rope, it's clothes.

'Ropa interior' is underwear, not some sort of interior rigging. If you genuinely need rope, ask for 'cuerda'.

Tell a Spaniard you're 'embarazada' and you're not confessing embarrassment - you've announced you're pregnant.

The word you wanted was 'avergonzada'. A slip that has made many an exchange trip memorable.

CURIOSIDADES DO INGLÊS #09

SENSITIVE X SENSIBLE

👉 SENSIBLE = sensato, razoável, prático

That sounds like a sensible decision.

👉 SENSITIVE = sensível

She’s very sensitive to criticism.

Então, cuidado com a semelhança:

🧠 sensible → sensato
❤️ sensitive → sensível

French 'attendre' means to wait, not to attend.

'Je t'attends' is 'I'm waiting for you', not 'I'm attending to you'. To attend an event is 'assister à'. Politely misleading either way.

CURIOSIDADES DO INGLÊS #02

Você já usou “actually” querendo dizer “atualmente”? 👀

Se sim, cuidado! Essa é uma das false friends mais comuns para quem fala português.

👉 Actually = na verdade / de fato
👉 Currently = atualmente / no momento

French 'librairie' is a bookSHOP, where you buy books, not a library.

The place you borrow them for free is a 'bibliothèque'. Terribly easy to walk into one expecting the other.

That moment when I teach Swedish online for German students and need to clarify that SV stund is not DE Stunde.
SV lån is not DE Lohn.
SV snabel is not DE Schnabel.
SV igel is not DE Igel.
SV ordinär is not DE ordinär.
Want more examples?
