money (colloquial)
soldi
SOL-di
'Soldi' is the everyday word for money. 'Denaro' is more formal. 'Essere al verde' (to be in the green) paradoxically means to be broke — from old empty-bottomed candles showing green at the end.
Non ho soldi — sono al verde.
I have no money — I'm broke.
I soldi non fanno la felicità.
Money doesn't buy happiness.
