French - dessous (below) and dessus (above). Utterly indistinguishable for a non-native of course
It's not that hard, though. The difference is about the same as the one between "moot" and "mute" in English.
It's the same in both languages - both words spoken by an articulate older gent - no probs mate
Both words spoken by your average teenager - might as well be Swahili
