The word calm has a short vowel sound, but it is not the same (ah) as in apple.

The "umlaut A" sound is normally seen only in AR words (bar, car). And in some cases it is barely distinguishable from a caret O sound (AW).

In US English, the L is heard, and the similar words call and caulk are both caret O sounds as in caw, not umlaut A as in card.
