for what it's worth I thought it sounds fine. Maybe Milan sounds wrong to an Italian, but it sounds like how most Americans say Milan to me

- martin-adams 8y agoYeah, I think you're right. I suspect the Italian pronunciation is like 'me-lan' rather than 'mil-an'. As for the general sound, I thought it was pretty good. I was impressed that Polly even adds in inhaling of breath. Subtle, yet effective.
- DrNuke 8y agoItalian pronunciation for Milano is here: https://www.comesipronuncia.it/pronuncia/milano-10397 https://www.comesipronuncia.it/pronuncia/milano-10397 . That said, Italians generally mean the UK’s received pronunciation when studying and listening to English language, so heavy American accents are way too large and quite difficult to us.
