False friends

Hi guys

I �m doing some research in Spanish about "false cognates or false friends" in English-Spanish languages. I have a long list of false cognates.

I wonder if you could help me with some theory, teaching resources or activities of how to teach false cognates.

Thanks in advance,

Kathy

I �ve got a few worksheets that I use as a quiz to compare and contrast cognates and false cognates:

There are another 3 of them, too. Hope they help in some way.
