    Sure. Just like "cou" (neck) in French confuses Portuguese people because it sounds like "ASS" in Portuguese.
    Just the same way "Free" confuses any non-English speaker.

    What's your point?

    If anything, it should be in the REAL universal language: Latin.

    It doesn't even favor any country. It's a dead language (unfortunately in my opinion).
