Italian word
cancelliere
a court clerk; the Chancellor (of Germany or Austria)
Looks like
chancellor
the head of government in Germany/Austria; a university head; historically, a high royal official
⚠️ The trap
In Italian courts, 'cancelliere' is a relatively junior administrative official (court clerk). In English/German political usage, 'Chancellor' is a head of government. Italian speakers must be careful not to confuse these hierarchically.
To say "the head of government in Germany/Austria; a university head; historically, a high royal official" in Italian:
cancelliere
"cancelliere" in English means:
a court clerk; the Chancellor (of Germany or Austria)
Example
"Il cancelliere ha protocollato l'atto."
"The court clerk registered the document."
