In Irish Gaelic, "más" means mace, buttocks, and thigh. And in Brazillian Portugese, depending on context, it can mean, but, even, however, only, still, yet, indeed, defect, hindrance, objection, and obstacle.

"mas", in czech & slovak, written "máš" , means "you have"
You may feel alone when you’re falling asleep
And every time tears roll down your cheeks
But I know your heart belongs to someone you’ve yet to meet
Someday you will be loved

and "más" in Hungarian with the same pronunciation (maash) means "another" - "(ez) más!" = that's different!

Multiple mothers

In English it could be the plural form of ma (the shortened form of mama, meaning mother).

i.e. Our mas sit down and eat the paper together every morning.
