Abstract
The goal of this thesis is to analyze errors during the oral interpretation of false friends from English into Croatian and vice versa. The analysis of errors will be based on the results of three tasks, whereby the first task comprises an isolated word, the second task contains words followed by visual input and the third task includes sentences with false friends. This thesis aims to see whether or not the context and visual input will have an influence on errors made during the interpretation of false friends. This thesis can be divided into two parts. The first part is of theoretical nature, it deals with the definitions and classifications of false friends. Furthermore, it contains the explanation and definition of bilingualism, which is an important part of false friend phenomenon and it gives a brief insight into the bilingual mind and memory of a bilingual person. The second part focuses on the present study and data collection and analyses. For the purpose of the study twenty participants of the second year of master's programme of English language and literature were tested. The second part also presents the results of the conducted study, which indicate that the context did influence the number of errors while interpreting false friends. Furthermore, visual input increased the number of errors during the false friend interpretation.
