Italian word

sintomo

symptom

Looks like

symptom

same

⚠️ The trap

Same meaning, but the trap is the plural: 'sintomi' (not sintomas or sintoms). Also: Italians say 'avere dei sintomi' — the partitive article 'dei' is natural here. 'Ho dei sintomi influenzali' = I have flu-like symptoms.

To say "same" in Italian:

sintomo (correct)

"sintomo" in English means:

symptom

Example

"Quali sintomi ha? Mal di testa e nausea."

"What symptoms do you have? Headache and nausea."
