Cognates are words in one language that share a similar word and meaning in another language:

Cognate (English), Cognado (Spanish)

Impossible (English), Imposible (Spanish), Impossible (French)

Note cognates may not be exactly spelled the same, but they're relatively similar in spelling, and share similar or exact meaning to be considered useful for language-learners.

False Cognates are words in one language that share a similar word in another language (or languages), but do not share meaning:

Burro (donkey in Spanish); Burro (butter in Italian)

Pronto (soon in Spanish); Pronto (ready in Italian), prima (antes): come prima.

Even the Romance languages share false Cognates among each other…

Despite English having lots of Roman/ French influence, there are many, many false congnates that trick us English speakers who learn a Romance language:

Bras (women’s clothing in English) ; Le bras (arm in French)
