In an earlier episode, we discussed linguistic false friends, those words in foreign languages that look like familiar English words, but mean something quite different. Martha reads an email response from a listener who learned the hard way that in Norway "Tann Paste" is not the same as "tanning cream." This is part of a complete episode.
