Shrimati

Shrimati or Shreemati (Sanskrit: श्रिमती), abbreviated Smt., is the standard Indian honorific (akin to Mrs. in English) used when referring to an adult, married female in various Indian languages, including Sanskrit, Nepali, Bengali, Hindi, and Malayalam, Telugu and sometimes in English as well (in an Indian context). The equivalent title for men is Shree or Sri.

The clear pronunciation in English would be "shreemati" and "shreeman".
