COGNATES is the term for words from different languages that look similar and mean the same thing.

These are words that have common etymological origin or are identified as "blood relatives".

Example of cognates are: 
natt<span> (</span>Swedish,Norwegian<span>), </span>nat<span> (</span>Danish<span>), </span>nátt<span> (</span>Faroese<span>)
</span>
They all mean "night" in English.
