Italian word

negozio

shop, store

Looks like

negotiate

to discuss terms of an agreement

⚠️ The trap

Both come from Latin 'negotium' (business), but 'negozio' means a retail shop while 'negoziare' is the Italian verb to negotiate.

To say "to discuss terms of an agreement" in Italian:

negoziare (for to negotiate)

"negozio" in English means:

shop, store

Example

"C'è un bel negozio di scarpe in centro."

"There is a nice shoe shop in the city centre."
