Same Word, Different in Meaning

I was walking around the grocery when I saw this bath soap called, “Lomi Lomi”. It sounds like the famous Filipino-Chinese dish “Lomi” but it’s actually a term for the traditional Hawaiian massage which means “loving touch”.

No matter how diverse the languages of each country in the world are, it still proves that we (esp the Asian countries) have something in common. :)
