OP Would like to discuss about such words.
In many cases the correct word may be different in different languages but the word used in speaking may sound similar.
Best example would be "Mother"
coomon words used in many languages
"Ma", "Amma" ( in mny mother toungue- Malayalam), Mom, Madre ( Spanish) all looks similar.
I would like to discuss how such similarities come in, may be with more examples.
