There are too many words as example:

Armadillo from Armadillo

Coyote from Coyote

Ranch from Rancho

Plaza from Plaza

Potato from Patata


Béisbol from Baseball

Voleibol from Volleyball

Fútbol from Football

Gol from Goal

Bumerán from Boomerang

Try googling spanish loanwords and/or anglicismos.

Other than foods and imports no. Both English and Spanish have the roots of Latin and therefor share simular words.
