    Default Re: English words that conflict with your language.

    If I compare my language with English, I find alot of conformity.

    dei - they
    der - there
    her - here (similar pronounciation)
    da - that

    Yet if words of the same meaning are nothing similar, they do rarely look like words of different meaning. The word "gift" is then an exception, since it just as in German means 'poison' in Norwegian.
