Italian word

piano

plan; floor/level of a building; piano (musical instrument); flat/level surface

Looks like

plan

a detailed proposal; an intention; a flat map/diagram

⚠️ The trap

'Piano' means both plan and floor/storey. 'Piano terra' = ground floor, 'secondo piano' = second floor. In a business context 'piano' for strategy is correct, but it shares the word with building floors — context is essential.

To say "a detailed proposal; an intention; a flat map/diagram" in Italian:

piano (plan/floor/piano)

"piano" in English means:

plan; floor/level of a building; piano (musical instrument); flat/level surface

Example

"Il nostro piano industriale prevede l'apertura di tre nuovi uffici."

"Our business plan includes opening three new offices."
