Italian word
nord
north
Looks like
north / nord
north — essentially correct (same Germanic root)
⚠️ The trap
Very close to English but Italians use 'nord', 'sud' (south), 'est' (east), 'ovest' (west). 'Nord-ovest' = northwest. On road signs you'll see 'NORD' for northbound. Not a false friend but key travel vocabulary.
To say "north — essentially correct (same Germanic root)" in Italian:
nord
"nord" in English means:
north
Example
"Milano si trova nel nord d'Italia."
"Milan is located in the north of Italy."
