Note, they are pronouncing "ciccotti" So the first two syllables are as I said, but the final syllable on youtube is "tee" because that's how the vowel "i" is pronounced. Think "spaghetti" for example.

The vowel "e" is pronounced "ay". So, as I said, we have chee-CO-tay.

From your website, they pronounce the word cinque (meaning the number 5) correctly, with the leading "ci" : https://www.howtopronounce.com/italian/cinque
