Italian word

cassa

cash desk, till, cashier's desk; cash (on hand); chest/box

Looks like

case

a container; a legal case; an instance

⚠️ The trap

'Cassa' means cash desk or cash box, not case. 'Caso' is the word for case. In finance, 'flusso di cassa' = cash flow, not flow of cases.

To say "a container; a legal case; an instance" in Italian:

cassa (till/cash box); caso (case/instance)

"cassa" in English means:

cash desk, till, cashier's desk; cash (on hand); chest/box

Example

"La cassa dell'azienda è quasi vuota."

"The company's cash on hand is nearly empty."
