I don't remember seeing that, but that is funny, and makes sense. It can cause great humor when the same word exists in two different languages, spelled and/or pronounced the same, but with very different meanings, especially when the two languages have so many true cognates. I remember the confusion that happened when I said I was full after a meal to a Swede in Scotland. I guess they thought I was anglicizing the pronunciation of the Swedish word, as they said I didn't look like I had been drinking... lol
