The name “MATE”, pronounced Ma-Tay, comes from yerba maté, a species of holly native to subtropical South America. Its leaves contain caffeine and are used to make infusions and a beverage called mate.

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerba_mate

They actually write "maté" with the e accent acute although it's not actually written that way. Still pronounced the same apparently.

Popular pronunciation takes precedence over everything. That's how languages are made.

>>55981031
Depends on the language desu.
English doesn't have clear rules for pronouncing words, so it makes sense to just say it the way people around you say it. My mother tongue, for example, has every possible sound mapped to a letter, so new words can be written the same way they're meant to be pronounced, the only difference comes when people have different accents.

Which language?
