Answer:
Broken and useless; no longer working or effective.
Explanation:
The German word kaputt ("destroyed"), from which derives the English colloquialism 'kaput' or 'caput,' meaning done, or finished, is not related to this word. The origin of the German word, and consequently the English words, is a borrowing from the French: être capot, lit. 'to be bonnet' or fig. 'to be defeated'.
