It must be a minefield for French people learning English as we have incorporated a so many french words and assigned more specific meanings to them. I might have this example wrong as I don't speak much french, but there must be quite a few like this:
English -> French
Body 'A human body (alive or dead)' -> Corps
Corpse 'A dead body' -> Cadavre
Cadaver 'A dead body prepared for burial or medical research' -> ?
