Italian word
capitale
capital (money/city); also: adjective meaning main/chief
Looks like
capital
money for investment; uppercase letter; capital city; punishable by death
⚠️ The trap
Mostly equivalent, but 'capitale' as an adjective means 'chief/main' (errore capitale = grave error), not 'uppercase'. For uppercase letter say 'maiuscola'.
To say "money for investment; uppercase letter; capital city; punishable by death" in Italian:
capitale (noun); capitale (city)
"capitale" in English means:
capital (money/city); also: adjective meaning main/chief
Example
"L'azienda ha bisogno di nuovo capitale per espandersi."
"The company needs new capital to expand."
