 1500 mots identiques en
français et en anglais
_

On estime que 29% des mots de l’anglais moderne sont issus du français
(source Wikipedia). De plus, un autre 29% des mots anglais sont issus du
latin (dont beaucoup de mots scientifiques). Mais, cela fonctionne aussi
dans l’autre sens : beaucoup de vocabulaire français vient de l’anglais.

Il existe donc de nombreux mots qui sont similaires en français et en

anglais. Certains sont de FAUX amis, car ils n’ont pas le même sens. En
revanche, un grand nombre sont des VRAIS amis, ou presque : ils ont un
sens proche ou similaire, et s’écrivent de la même manière. Vous
trouverez ci-dessous une liste de ceux-ci !

Ces mots constituent une bonne manière d’apprendre beaucoup de

vocabulaire avec peu d’efforts. Mais attention, souvent les mots d’origine
française appartiennent au langage soutenu, vous paraitrez peut-être un
peu pompeux ou intellectuel si vous n’utilisez que ces mots-là.

Enfin, sachez que si l’orthographe est semblable, la prononciation, elle,

est le plus souvent totalement différente! Ces mots restent néanmoins
une formidable ressource pour les Francophones voulant apprendre
beaucoup de vocabulaire anglais.

Bonne lecture à vous !
