In Kannada Yettimara is written right.
But when I hear the pronunciation from locals I can be really sure of the

Millingtonia hortensis is probably from Burma or nearby regions and
has been sought after by horticulturists for planting in parks and
gardens.
It is pollinated well and fruits profusely in many places in Bangalore
but the germination rate of seeds is very low, hence propagated by
root suckers.
Madhuca longifolia is what we see commonly in and around Bangalore, mostly
planted.
Madhuca indica is found quite rarely in the wild in forests around
Bangalore(Turallibetta etc), the leaves are much broader, bark has
horizontal fissures when tree is young.Fruits are 2 to 3
