English words mangled by Tamil cinema/other media
Tamizh cinema, dramas and other media have their own unique pronunciation of English words. A few that quickly come to mind:
comebaynee(cum-bay-nee)-company
maynayger(may-nay-jur)-manager
motahrbike(moat-ahr-bike)-motorbike
Is this the result of reading out the English words after writing them out in Tamil?

its one of the best i found...
Thanks for pointing me to that site. Useful indeed. My latest craze, and I do not know how long it will last, is to try and innovate on my own, adding Indian touches to non-Indian styles of cooking- Fusion cuisine, if I can use that term.
