Thanks very much, dear Sam ji, I think you mean to say that it is better to explicitly write as *കാട്ടുമാങ്ങ kaattumaanga* rather than *കാട്ടുമാ kaattumaa*.
Simply and only *മാ maa* also means mango - as listed in Hermann Gundert's A Malayalam and English dictionary. Here is the specific link from where I got *കാട്ടുമാ kaattumaa ... * https://dsal.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/app/gundert_query.py?qs=%E0%B4%AE%E0%B4%BE&searchhws=yes&matchtype=exact If you insist, I will change *കാട്ടുമാ kaattumaa*.to *കാട്ടുമാങ്ങ kaattumaanga*.
