The word hour does not have a typical long vowel sound. The OU is pronounced as an OW sound. The H is silent, so it is pronounced the same as the possessive pronoun "our" (owr). The British English pronunciation sounds more like two syllables (ow-uh).

The word "hour" does not have a long vowel sound; rather, it has the diphthong /aŹŠ/, which is a combination of the vowel sounds /a/ and /ŹŠ/.
