The word look is spelt in IPA pronunciation as /lʊk/ - the vowel sound ʊ refers to a near-close near-back vowel. This is called a "short OO" vowel sound because it does not have the same force as a long OO (long U) although it is spelled the same. Examples of this (oah) sound are book, good, foot, and put.

Vowel sounds in words can be the same even if the actual vowels (or vowel pairs) are different. For example, the U in the word put with a U has the same sound as foot and good. The Y in type has the same long I sound as the I in wipe or light. Vowel sounds can be made by several combinations of letters. In the case of the long O sound (oh), it can appear as these spellings: - O (go, comb, cold) - O with a silent E (note, hole) - OE (doe, foe) - OA (loan, boat) - OUGH (dough, though) - OW (flow, mow, row) - French spellings eau, eaux, and aux (beau, faux, bureau).
