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.

(__)"Comprehensive" is a cognate word that shares exactly the same meaning with "compreensivo" in Portuguese, usually describing someone who is empathetic.

III.Idioms are expressions whose meaning can be easily deduced by the literal sum of the meanings of their individual component words.
