There are homophones (sound alike words) capital and capitol, and the second can only be used very specifically.

Definitions of capital:

  • assets available for use in the production of further assets
  • wealth in the form of money or property owned by a person or business and human resources of economic value
  • a seat of government
  • uppercase; "capital A"; "great A"; "many medieval manuscripts are in majuscule script"
  • a center that is associated more than any other with some activity or product; "the crime capital of Italy"; "the drug capital of Columbia"
  • first-rate; "a capital fellow"; "a capital idea"
  • Das Kapital: a book written by Karl Marx (1867) describing his economic theories
  • of primary importance; "our capital concern was to avoid defeat"
  • the upper part of an architectural column that supports the entablature

Definitions of capitol :

  • a building occupied by a state legislature
  • the government building in Washington where the United States Senate and the House of Representatives meet
