A cognate is a word that has a similar meaning and spelling in two languages, often because both languages have a common origin. Among the options provided:

- **Paella** (a traditional Spanish dish)
- **Mapa** (meaning "map" in both Spanish and English)
- **Carpeta** (meaning "folder" in Spanish, which is different from the English "carpet")
- **Once** (meaning "eleven" in Spanish, which is different in English)

The correct answer is **Mapa** since it is a cognate that means the same in both English and Spanish.
