Many words ending in "-tage" are of French origin
I would be helpful to know the pronounciation. It has a Japanese look to me which would mean it was pronounced coo-mah-tah-gay. Of course, its having been in the English language since 1854 may have had profound effects on its pronunciation. Also, I can't seem to squeeze any sense out of it in Japanese, but my resources are pretty slim.
