-- Coliseum ['kɒlə'sɪəm]

Because 'Coliseum' is an invented word, there is no alteration to the pronunciation. It is similar with names - Coliseum is the name of something specific and so, Italians refer to it simply as 'Coliseum.'

It would be the same with, say, the name of a person. John Smith. They would still call him John Smith, even though that is an English name, because names do not change.
