Mmm...
macchiatto
A single espresso with a very tiny quantity of frothed milk. The name refers to the milk being stained or 'marked' with the coffee. Mocha: A drink rather similar to a latte, but with chocolate syrup or powder added. The result is somewhere between a cappuccino and a hot chocolate.
caffe latte: strong espresso coffee with a topping of frothed steamed milk
The "cortados" I remember from Spain were not with "frothed milk"... so I'd think that to be on the safe side I would ask for
coffee with a dash of milk
coffee with only a little milk
(There is a coffee place by "San Jaume" square, in Barcelona, were you can drink the best espresso in the planet... even better than the cappuccinos I took in Florence... but that's another subject...)
