Best Answer

The short O sound is pronounced generally as 'aah'.

-- O words

Lots of words spelled with the letter O have the short O sound: ox, odd, hot, pot, dot, cot, lot, not, spot, cop, pop, top, stop, mob, snob, rob, Opera, operate, object, olive, ostrich, occupy, bobcat, monster, modern, popular, positive.

-- A words

Some words can have a similar short O sound but are not spelled with the letter O.

Examples are: ma, pa, mafia, swab, waffle, watch

* The similar words with OR and AW are caret O (or, all, force) or umlaut A (car, calm) rather than a short O sound. Most of these words are spelled with or, au, ou, or al/all.

Do the words mother and brother have a long or short vowel sound?

The words "mother" and "brother" have an "uh" sound that is typically sounded as a short U (compare to mutter).The words "mother" and "brother" have a short vowel sound. A long vowel sound carries the vowel as in "o" in loose or the "e" in femur. Short vowel sounds do not carry the sound of the vowel, as the "o" in foot or the "o" in dog. A good way of showing the difference is to take one word with a short vowel sound such as "bit" and listen to how the I sounds, then make a long vowel sound (eye rather than /ih/ ) and you'd pronounce the word as b-eye-t, which is bite.
