Dito is an Italian equivalent of the Spanish word dedo.

Specifically, the Italian and Spanish words both are the singular forms of a masculine noun. The Italian word can be preceded by the masculine singular definite article il("the") or the masculine singular indefinite article un ("a, one"), but not uno in this case, because uno is reserved for words starting with s+consonant, i+vowel, z and other less common letter combinations. In other words, you cannot say uno dito, you have to say un dito, truncating unointo un. The Spanish equivalents are el and un, uno.

The pronunciations will be "DEE-toh" in Italian and "DEY-thoh" in Spanish.

Both dito and dedo come from Latin digitus and you have the same root in some English words like digit, digital. This is no surprise since fingers can be used for counting small quantities up to ten, that is a digit 0-9 and even 10 is represented by the same number of streched out fingers, while the others are bent.
