Italian word
titolo
title (of a book/film/person); headline; bond (financial security)
Looks like
title
the name of a book, film, etc.; a word showing rank or status
⚠️ The trap
True cognate for most uses, but 'titoli' in finance = bonds/securities. 'Titoli di stato' = government bonds. No parallel in English 'title'. Don't assume a financial article is about job titles.
To say "the name of a book, film, etc.; a word showing rank or status" in Italian:
titolo (same meaning, plus financial use)
"titolo" in English means:
title (of a book/film/person); headline; bond (financial security)
Example
"Ha conseguito il titolo di dottore."
"He obtained the title of Doctor."
