Capitalization occurs when your lender or loan servicer adds the amount of unpaid, accrued interest on your student loan to your loan balance. Once this interest has been capitalized, interest begins to accrue on that new, higher loan balance.

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

Capitalism is a mode of production where a tiny minority own and control the land, factories, offices, means of transport etc. Most people have to work for a wage and are exploited by their employers.

There is no such thing as "communist capitalism" but if you mean the state capitalism of say China today and if by "democracy capitalism" you mean liberal democratic countries, the economic systems are essentially the same.
