Looking for words in your language means something totally different in another.
"Burro" in Spanish means "donkey" in English and "burro" in Italian means "butter" in English.
That is the first one that comes to my mind.

Salvage in English means "to save" or "rescue". The way most Filipinos use it though is to refer to extra-judicial or vigilante killings.
"He was salvaged." (He was killed by policemen/vigilantes.)
