Yeah that's how they say it, but they get a lot wrong, so I wouldn't put much in it I mean these people see a "F" in lieutenant and pronounce an extra syllable in aluminum.
No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

Puma. Pooma vs pyooma. pronounce an extra syllable in aluminum. I think you'll find that we pronounce no more than the correct number of syllables in aluminium

Let's not add spelling in to it! Haha Here are some more that we can debate Leisure Niche Zebra or anything that starts with Z usually (Zee/Zed) Envelope Route Progress The last three I hear Americans with each pronunciation, so not necessarily so distinct between our cultures

I think I can safely say that no American or Englishman says it like that. Whatever differences we may have regarding the spoken word, it is not that i disagree, i say like the US audio 1 https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/envelopeEdit: BUT VERY MANLY !!!!!

I read your phonetics as rhyming with oompa loompa, but whatever, if it's manly it's OK.
The word envelope is decidedly un-manly, so to put such a spin on it deserves respect.

Imagine Indiana Jones shouting "water" instead of "wadda", it wouldn't have been the same.
That Farrow bloke you executed today, are you sure he's dead? Well I chopped his head off, that usually does the trick. Yes, don't get clever with me Baldrick. I just thought you might have lopped off a leg or something by mistake. No, the thing I chopped off had a nose.
