There are none in the US, where AU is almost exclusively pronounced as AW (ô).

However, in the UK, where the R sound is used differently, words such as caught, taught, naughty, and even flaw and law pronounce the "caret O" closer to a long O and R, so that in British English, caught and court sound exactly the same, as do the words flaw and floor, or law and lore.

The words are mostly those spelled with -OUGH (the GH being silent).

They include dough and though, and words based on them.
