new trivia question

Okay, this will be the last one for awhile--I promise. This falls into the category of vocabulary. What do the following words mean? capital and capitol They were on the challenge spelling word list for Sara and I had to look them up to figure out the context to put them in while we were practicing. Remember no cheating--I know dictionary.com is just a click away...

If I remember correctly, capitol is the governmental center of a country or it can even refer to a government building. Capital refers to upper case letters. Am I right?

Wow, you got me on this one. I cheated and looked it up. Thanks for the dictionary.com tip! :0) Keep the questions coming! So far I am 0 for 2.

Hey, I was thinking about it some more and capital is used when it is the state capital or capital in a business. So I think capitol only is used for the capitol buildings.
