The OU in mouse has the AW sound (caret O), as in house and sprout. This is widely spelled as AU or AW. In US English, many words ending in -ong have an -awng sound. Some words with OR are pronounced the same in British English.

Some words with this vowel sound are:

AW words - claw, brawl, lawn, awed

AU words - caught, taught, taut

OA words - broad

O words - on, long, song, moll, john

A words - ball, fall

The vowel sound in these words is an OW sound, also spelled as OU. It is a special sound similar to the long O. You hear it in the words round, south, down, clown, and loud.
