You should look into the format method of strings, or the even newer f-string syntax (Python 3.6+).

# format method
current_sound = playsound("C:/Users/thoma/Desktop/test/{}.mp3".format(item_list[current_item_index]["som"]))
# f-string
current_sound = playsound(f"C:/Users/thoma/Desktop/test/{item_list[current_item_index]['som']}.mp3")

You are going to need to show more code and the full text of the error. Please use python and output tags when posting code and results. Here are instructions.
