It's the same with German. I had a German friend and every time I wanted to learn and use a cool new German word with him, it was the same word in English.

Same for french. Here in Quebec we made up a lot of words to use instead but in French they don't have a word for weekend or parking or shopping, they just say "weekend" and "parking" and "shopping" lol...
