Below is an advertisement for a restaurant. Oops! The writer made a mistake and used a false cognate incorrectly. Read the advertisement and identify at least one true cognate, 3 borrowed words and one false cognate. Submit the list of borrowed words and cognates in French.

Au Restaurant Advertisement


Le restaurant de L'Etoile est près de l'aéroport. Sur le menu, on trouve de bons hors-d'œuvres, de la quiche, et des sandwiches. En dessert, il y a une crêpe à la mode, des éclairs et des gâteaux.

Hi

One true cognate word = l'aéroport

One false cognate = à la mode
it has nothing to see with "fashion" . It's a "french cuisine" term

3 borrowed words =
restaurant, menu,quiche, dessert, sandwiches

sandwiches is a "French" word borrowed to England (lord Sandwich)

hope I helped !!
