Funfair - Fünf (German)
Feminine - Fem (Danish)

Oh,I see,it was an easy one.

Strictly speaking...
'Fünf' does not begin with 'Fun' as 'ü' and 'u' are different (the Germans have more than 26 letters in their alphabet). If you do not use the letter 'ü' you would need to write it as 'ue' so the word 'Fünf' would then be 'Fuenf'.
But hey... interesting riddle, all the same!

Gee I'm shocked. That came from a "Mensa Brain Bafflers" puzzle book. I don't know how they could let that slip by.
