Italian word
sindaco
a mayor
Looks like
syndicate
a combination of companies or individuals for a common purpose
⚠️ The trap
'Sindaco' looks like 'syndicate' but means mayor. A syndicate in Italian is 'sindacato' (which also means trade union). There is no relation to criminal organisations as 'syndicate' implies in English.
To say "a combination of companies or individuals for a common purpose" in Italian:
sindaco
"sindaco" in English means:
a mayor
Example
"Il sindaco ha inaugurato il nuovo parco pubblico."
"The mayor inaugurated the new public park."
