In Commercial Law, a Principal is a person, fictitious or otherwise, who authorises an Agent to act to create one or more legal relationships with a Third Party. This branch of law is called Agency and relies on the common law proposition, qui facit per alium, facit per se: this is Latin for he or she who acts through another, acts personally and it is a parallel concept to vicarious liability and strict liability in which one person is held liable in Criminal Law or Tort for the acts or omissions of another.

False cognates, by contrast, are similar words in different languages that appear to have a common historical linguistic origin (regardless of meaning) but actually do not.
One kind of false friend can occur when two speakers speak different varieties of the same language. Speakers of British English and American English sometimes have this problem, which was alluded to in George Bernard Shaw's statement "England and America are two countries divided by a common language." For example, in the UK, to "table" a motion means to place it on the agenda, while in the U.S. it means exactly the opposite—to remove it from consideration.
