c'est l'heure d'aller au lit ! ou c'est l'heure d'aller se coucher !
No, the O in out (of outside) is part of the diphthong OU which is an OW sound and not the same as the short O. Words like "dot" and "got" have a short O sound. The OU/OW sound in "outside" is the same as the vowel sound in "sound", "doubt", "down", "foul", and "how".
The word "caught" is pronounced cawt in the US and has no homophone (sound-alike word).However, in the UK and Australia, the words caught and court are pronounced similarly (kôt and kôrt) with the AU and OU virtually the same and the R not distinct. In the US, court is usually pronounced (kort).
The vowel sound in "clout" is the diphthong "ou," which creates the /aʊ/ sound.
Not all 'ou' make the u sound. Also it's how the word is made
There are two OW pairs in downtown, that have the ou/ow sound as in cow and brown. The OW is created by OW and OU and sometimes by AU. Some examples are: OW words - now, plow, sow, clown, owl, drowsy OU words - out, cloud, count, doubt, house, route, sound, south AU words - kraut, gauss
You first make yourself sound like a monkey then go Ou Ah Ou Ou.
To produce the "ou" sound as in "sound," position your mouth to make an "ah" sound and then round your lips as if to say "oo." Practice transitioning smoothly between these two positions to achieve the correct pronunciation.
The letters "ou" make the "f" sound in the word "rough."
