Best Answer

'Spaventapasseri' is an Italian equivalent of 'scarecrow'.

The word 'spaventa' is a verb form of the infinitive 'spaventare', which means 'to frighten, to scare'. The masculine noun 'passeri' means 'house sparrows, sparrows' [Passer domesticus]. Together, they're pronounced 'spah-VEHN-tah-PAHS-seh-ree'.
