The Italian word for goat is capra; a desire to change direction and a short attention span were traits always attributed to the goat, and as such the word capriccio, which means whimsy, developed. It is from this word that the English language borrowed capricious, meaning apt to change direction on a whim. Neither the animal nor the word has anything to do with Capri pants.
