False friends in Spanish

from Your Mexican Friend Hosted by Your Mexican Friend

In this episode, we dive into the world of false friends in Spanish and English: words that look similar but have completely different meanings. Discover how these words can cause confusion and learn to identify them to avoid misunderstandings. We share funny examples, common mistakes, and strategies to master them. If you've ever confused "embarazada" with "embarrassed" or "actualmente" with "actually," this episode is for you. Join us and become an expert at avoiding these linguistic pitfalls! (This episode is spoken in both Spanish and English.)
