IT LOOKS LIKE ENGLISH BUT IT'S NOT-2

Hello again. I hope your day is going well,

Today we continue with more of those words and expressions in Spanish/Catalan that look like English, but aren't.

Consider the following expressions in Spanish/Catalan and their correct translations into English:

Span/Cat: Un smoking
English: A tuxedo

Span/Cat: Play-back
English: lip-synching

Span/Cat: Un master
English: A master's degree (M.A.). A two year degree after your "licenciatura".

Span/Cat: Los Rolling
English: The Stones

So English speakers do not say "I'm going to the Rollings concert" but rather "I'm going to the Stones concert".

I hope you find these as humorous as I do. :-)

Have a great day!
