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. 😛

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.
