Question 1

💡 Dorita's Flashcard Guide: Trickiest False Cognates & False Friends

Master these common translation traps that often trip up Portuguese speakers!

🔴 "Parents" vs. "Parentes"

Parents in English means strictly Pais (Mother and Father). It does not mean extended family members like aunts, uncles, or cousins.

🟢 "Relatives" vs. "Parentes"

If you want to talk about your extended family (tios, primos, avós, etc.), the correct English word is Relatives or Extended Family.

🔵 "Actually" vs. "Atualmente"

Actually means realmente / na verdade (in fact), whereas Atualmente in Portuguese translates to currently / nowadays in English.
