(Also, post words in other languages that have meanings in other languages, like this.)

Pregnant means to be in labor in English.
Prägnant in German means succinct or concise.

You might hear a German native speaker say "She has a very pregnant personality".

Another thing that is different is who and where.

Who means "wer" in German.
Where means "wo" in German.
Someone who´s English is very bad might mix up the two. It´s not a problem if you pronounce the English words properly, but beginners usually don´t do that and get confused.
