Publisher Description

When an English chef uses a preservative it is not the same as when a German 'Chef' uses a 'Präservativ'. False friends like these are a foreign language's faux pas: words that sound similar to the ones we know, but have a very different meaning.

British author Diccon Bewes and Swiss illustrator Michael Meister created 51 cartoons in which they gleefully celebrate the pitfalls of false friends between English and German. This book is guaranteed to get you laughing and you'll even learn something along the way.

The book is bilingual.
