Starbuck Question?

That's wrong. In Italian, the english "ch" sound comes when an e or an i directly follow a c, or sometimes after an apostrophe (e.g. C'e or amici). So for your pronouciation to work, macchiato would have to be spelt without the h after the second c.

In the meantime, a c followed by an h in Italian is pronounced similar to the English "k".

Just as a side note, "Latte Macchiato" means "Stained Milk". They tend to call the drink that in Italy rather than the Starbucks "Caffe Macchiato". Stained Coffee doesn't make much sense

Same with Pizza. Two z's have a 'tsa' sound one has a 'ze' sound. Theres also another common one that gets mispronounced but i cant remember what it is.

[Abstract]

same here (with "mach" as described above)
or it could be written as mah-kee-aw-toe... it all sounds and tastes the same

thats the way i say it too. and i believe its correct.

edit: actually... Mach-ee-ah-toe is how i say it.

Yep, same way I say it. I'll add another way that's equivalent: Mock-ee-ah-toe.
