Regarding the use of vocabulary and the phenomenon of
"false friends" in the relationship between English and
Portuguese, mark T for True or F for False:
(__)The word "actual" in English is a false cognate that means "na verdade" or "real", and it should not be translated as "atual" in Portuguese.
(__)The English term "novel" refers to a long fictional narrative in prose (romance), while the Portuguese word "novela" is typically translated as "soap opera" or "short novel".
(__)"Comprehensive" is a cognate word that shares exactly the same meaning with "compreensivo" in Portuguese, usually describing someone who is empathetic.
(__)Lexical precision in academic English requires the use of phrasal verbs instead of Latinate single-word equivalents to increase the level of formality and abstraction.
Now, choose the CORRECT alternative with the sequence from top to bottom:
