So confused. Are they pronounced differently?

I dunno if you know some of Italian, but it's similar as in the Italian language, qhen they have a double consonant, like in "pizza", its almost like saying "pidza or pitza". So "Mate" sounds as it is writen in Latin alphabet, and "Matte" you have to hold a bit the "t" sound.. maybe like saying "mat -te".
