As a German who sometimes watches German dubs, one mistranslation from English I notice very frequently is "eventually" becoming "eventuell" ("possibly").
The pair is one of the most well-known "false friends" between the two languages, but somehow translators sometimes still get them wrong from time to time. The last time I noticed it was in a Star Trek TNG episode where the monologue didn't make any sense because of it. I constantly second-guess the translation when hearing the word.
