Question says it all. I'm looking for a list of German-English false friends, not only single words but also expressions like "it makes sense" (es macht Sinn); "eventually" (eventuell). |

http://www.englisch-hilfen.de/en/words/false_friends.htm dunno if there's something like "sky, my husband" :-) for that language pair. |

A search unearthed this site. I can't vouch for its accuracy as my high school German isn't up to the task, but it is a fairly long and well organized glossary. See what you think and let us know. A short sample can be seen below. An annotated German-English Glossary of Common False Cognates and Misleading Expressions
