    • While total false friends are pairs of words whose meanings are completely disparate, partial false friends only partially overlap in meaning. They are more treacherous than total false friends, for their partial overlap often induces us to believe that the vocabulary items concerned coincide completely.  (Ksenija Leban, Towards a Slovene-English False-Friend Dictionary, dans Henrik Gottlieb, ‎Jens Erik Mogensen et ‎Arne Zettersten (éds), Symposium on Lexicography X: Proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Lexicography May 4-6, 2000 at the University of Copenhagen, 2002, ISBN 9783110933192)
