- DougBTX 18y agoI love how English is quite happy to absorb new words, even if the English speakers only know a subset! Back in school, we were warned about "faux amis", words which sound like they'd be right to an English speaker, but very much out of place to a native French speaker. I think in English we'd just accept any and all alternative meanings and let context sort it out, who's up for some creative reading?
