Languages are silly.

These may not be the direct translations, but are what is more commonly used for the same thing - I find it funny when a language uses a loanword from another language, that the latter doesn't actually use for that thing:

English: smorgasbord (from Swedish smörgåsbord)
Swedish: buffé

American: foosball (from German Fußball)
German: Kicker

English: Diet Coke
European: Cola Light

...I bet you have more?
