I’m not a native German speaker obviously, but doesn’t “Das Kapital” translate to “THE Capital”?

Also, English-speakers should call it just “Capital”. Calling it “Das Kapital” is just propaganda to make the title sound more menacing than it is.

    because “The Capital” means one distinguished type of Capital in English but it doesn’t carry that meaning in German. Capital is the correct translation.
