Résumé :	The present study is conducted to explore a significant issue that encounters learners of English in translation, which is the problem of false friends as a consequence of the negative transfer of language. This investigation is an illustration on how third year students of English at the department of English faculty of letters and English language University of Frères Mentouri Constantine 1 deal with this linguistic phenomenon, when they translate from French into English and vice versa. In order to collect our data, thirty students are involved to answer a questionnaire and translate literary text. The questionnaire and test aim at determining whether students have an idea of what false friends mean, and avoiding transfer of elements from one language into another through identifying the similarities and the differences between them. From the results obtained, we have noticed that the majority of third year students are victims of false friends due to their tendency of transferring elements from the source language into the target one. As false friends represent a source of confusion for students of English, some recommendations are suggested to raise students‟ awareness towards this serious problem, and produce an appropriate translation of literary texts.
