English: /'dɑ:tə/ ['dɑ:tʰə]~['dɑ:ʔə]. The first "a" is the same as in "father".

Italian: /'da.ta/ ['dä:ta]. There's only way to read the word anyway.

Portuguese: I don't use it. There's a native equivalent, "dados" /'da.dos/ ['dä.dos] (dado = a piece of data).

English covers hundreds of accents and multiple English speaking countries. There isn't just one pronunciation.

You think Italian and Portuguese don't?

I don't speak Italian and Portuguese so can't comment on it...
