When a word looks like another word but has a different meaning, it is often referred to as a "false cognate" or "false friend." False cognates are words in different languages that appear similar but do not share the same meaning. In English, terms like "actual" (meaning "real") and "actual" in Spanish (meaning "current") can illustrate this concept.
