The suspect is currently working at the bakery, though he claims to be a secret agent.

False Friends: In English, "actually" means "in reality" or "in fact" (a tricky false friend to the French actuellement or German aktuell). To talk about what is happening right now, we use "currently."

He speaks Russian fluently to his mysterious contacts.

Word Order: In English, we strictly keep the verb ("speaks") and its direct object ("Russian") together. We never separate them with an adverb! The adverb ("fluently") safely goes after the object.

Whether we arrest him tomorrow depends on his next move!

Prepositions: In English, a situation always "depends on" something else, unlike the French dépendre de ("of") or German abhängen von ("from").
