The desktop is named after the tea so it's pronounced Mah-TAY with 2 syllables.
It is _not_ "mate" /meɪt/ as in "pal" or "friend".
See the bottom of https://mate-desktop.org/
In Spanish, "mate" would be mah-tay. However in English it's one
syllable with a dipthong for the vowel sound, so it's written maté to
make it clear that is's not the English noun "mate".
That's why I write it Maté and not MATE as the developers use.
