It's actually supposed to be pronounced 'Kaa-ma' and if a Japanese person were to say the English word Karma, they would pronounce it exactly the same, since they swallow 'R' meaning, the intended English pronunciation is Karma, even though the meaning is different. yea i disagree, for one they don't really swallow the R. if a word that has an R in it is said slowly the R is clearly pronounced and heard. if said in normal conversation the R is swallowed as you say it. also there are several videos out there with actual Japanese people pointing out that its supposed to be pronounced kah Mah without an R sound

also the casual Japanese pronunciation of Karma is not Kāma. the Japanese pronunciation of Karma is Karuma(Kah Roo Mah)

i would also like to point out that Kāma is the god of love
