Manichino, pupazzo and scema or scemo are Italian equivalents of the English word "dummy." Context makes clear whether "mannequin" (case 1), "ventriloquist's doll" (example 2) or "unintelligent person" in the feminine (instance 3) or in the masculine (option 4) suits. The respective pronunciations will be "MA-nee-KEE-no," "poo-PAT-tso," "SHEY-ma" and "SHEY-mo" in Pisan Italian.
