I only found one of these so far (and on accident) and for all i know, this is the only one out there, anyway... There are some (or only 1) verbs that have sound just like words in other languages that are related to the verb.

Anyway, the one i found was 食べる (taberu). It sounds a little like table, where you eat.

If you find any yourself, post 'em.

Actually, i thought it was mear coincidence. lol They're called "puns" in klingon... the verb "pay" (regret) comes to mind.

actually, anything that sounds like it's english equivalent (in klingon) is considered a multi-lingual pun.
