Of course I can try to describe what's wrong, but it's not simple :)
It will be better if I can record myself when I pronounce these words
correctly. Controversie should sound like controverSSie and not
controversIIe, and ergastolo should sound like: EErgastolo and not
ergastolo. Just go to http://text-to-speech.imtranslator.net/ and
choose italian and type this two words: controversie, ergastolo. This
site work good! It pronounce these two words exactly like they should
sound. I think many other words in italian, google pronounce the wrong
way! It's a big problem for who learn to speak italian, because these
people learn the wrong pronunciation of the words! And, you should
know - in Italy it's VERY important to pronounce the words in right
mode. I hope you can solve this problem! Thank you a lot!
