No. When two vowels are next to each other, the general phonics rule is to pronounce the long sound of the first vowel while the second is silent. Beast = Bēst or "Beest" Road = Rōd or "Rode" Weird = Wērd or "Weerd" There are, of course, exceptions, but this is the general rule.
The "ch" makes a "sh" sound in words like chef or machine because it follows the rule of English pronunciation where "ch" can have a "sh" sound when it comes after an "e" or an "i." This pronunciation comes from the influence of French and other languages on English.
A general rule is an unstated rule that is widely accepted. Morals are general rules that are not taught but widely accepted.
Sound is the effect of disturbances of molecules. Imagine a chain reaction similar to Newton's balls - one molecule hits the next, which hits the next, etc. Sound is the same way - molecules vibrate, causing molecules near them to vibrate. Thus, the closer the molecules are to one another, the faster they will transfer the sound energy, and the faster the sound will travel. The general rule is: more dense = faster sound.

As a general rule, "a" is used when the first sound (not letter) in a word is a consonant. "An" is used when the first sound (not letter) is a vowel. "Uniform" is pronounced /ˈjuːnɪfɔːm/ or /ˈjunəfɔrm/, the first sound being /j/, (sounds like the 'y' in the words "you" or "yes"), which is a consonant. The rule has to do with the sound of the word and not the written form of the word. If the following word has the initial sound of a consonant then "a" is used. If the initial sound of the following word is a vowel then "an" is used. This rule results in a slight difference in usage in Britain and the USA.
