Of course there are some words that are exactly the same in two languages, but I think you mean words with different meanings that happen to have the same spelling in two different languages. If that's what you mean, there are lots of them. You could probably find some by looking up "false cognates" and the name of a language. Some examples from German: soon (in English)--> bald (in German) manure --> Mist poison-->Gift cell phone-->Handy gave-->gab left-->links red-->rot advice-->Rat etc.
