⚠️ The trap

These words share Latin roots but have completely different meanings. An English speaker might confuse them visually. 'L'armata' is an army and 'flotta' is a fleet in Italian.

To say "a fleet of warships" in Italian:

flotta, armata navale

"armadio" in English means:

wardrobe, closet, large cupboard

Example

"Ho messo i vestiti nell'armadio."

"I put the clothes in the wardrobe."
