1. A thing
Stuff that someone owns, in order to make more stuff.

2. A book
Capital’s three volumes were written to provide a theoretical arsenal to a workers’ movement for the revolutionary overthrow of the system—and to do so on the most scientific foundation possible
3. Elsewhere
3.1. In my garden
