What word in the english language's pronunciation changes when capitolized?

and

what word has 3 sets of double letters

AS FOR the word whose pronunciation changes, it's polish, which becomes Polish once the P stands up for itself.
One caller and three e-mailers brought that to my attention over the weekend. But I don't mind a little repetition, because I have the patience of job.
I mean, Job.

Question
Jamie,
What common English word changes its pronunciation when the first letter is capitalized? I need the answer today, if you are able, for a trivia question. Thank you very much.

Sincerely, Mike

Answer
Hi Mike,

Thanks for your question. I think that the word would be polish. When it is capitalized, it means "relating to or coming from Poland"; when it is lowercased, it refers to something you use to shine cars, furniture, etc. I hope I got you the answer in time!

there are many words with 3 sets of double letters, but do they have to be consecutive/in a row or not?

i do believe they have to be together, and its not for any class. my cousins bf said these to me, and he said he didnt get it when they were told to him and he some what doubted being able to find it ont he intro net.
