title: Towards a taxonomy of “false friends”: Faux amis for Hungarian users of English
abstract: This paper does not concern itself with three things: (a) it does not suggest ways for a more effective teaching the vocabulary of any L2. Neither do I wish to comment on the issue of whether the inductive methods that have been favoured over the past decades have helped the acquisition of vocabulary by discouraging recourse to L1 for meaning. (b) I do not compare the bodies of data in the available lists of false friends, since I look at false friends/cognates in just one particular bilingual and unidirectional fashion, cataloguing English false friends for Hungarians. Ideally, it will be found that other language pairs show similar patterns, thus these findings can be applied to other situations. © I do not evaluate the available lists of false friends: these bodies of data do exhibit inconsistencies, but it must be borne in mind that there is a great risk of error involved in such compilation. Where, however, questions of principle are involved, I shall not refrain from making critical comments.
