The word "jaw" has a short vowel sound, specifically the "ah" sound as in "cat."
A vowel sound is an exhalation of air where a sound is produced in the larynx (voicebox) rather than being shaped by the nose and mouth (tongue, lips, teeth). It is possible to say all of the long and short vowel sounds, and some of the special sounds, with a completely open mouth: Long sounds : A, E, I, O, OO, Short sounds ah, eh, ih, aah (as in odd), and oah (as in good). Caret O (OR in the UK, sounds long) : aw
The short A has an "ah" sound (cat, cab, can) while the broad A (long A) has a "ay" sound : able, cane, day, rain. The long A is usually created through other vowels (e.g. as in the word anal, the first A is stressed and the second is a schwa).
When pronouncing a long "i" sound, your jaw remains relatively still and your tongue moves towards the roof of your mouth. Your lips may slightly spread horizontally to create the sound. This sound is produced towards the front of the mouth, closer to the teeth.
The short A has the sound "ah" as in apple and sat.
A short A typically makes the sound "æ" as in "cat" or "bat." It is a brief, clipped sound produced by a quick movement of the tongue and jaw.

The two basic types are long vowels and short vowel sounds.-- Long vowels "say their name" and sound like AY, EE, eye, OH, or OO (also YOO).-- Short vowel sounds are ah (apple), eh (get), ih (sit), aah (stop), and uh (rut). There is also a short OO sound, as in good and foot.-- The schwa sound can be any unstressed sound (ah, eh, ih, uh).There are special sounds such as-- the caret A (long A with an R sounds like "air")-- the caret O (OR or AW sound)-- the OU pair sound (OW)-- the OI pair sound (OY) as in coin and boy.The OI sound is created by the sounds O-I-E, blended together.Besides the OR, other vowels also have slightly different sounds when stressed and paired with an R : the umlaut A (car), caret I (ear, beer) and caret U (er and ur). When unstressed, the er, ir, and ur are all schwa sounds that have about the same sound,.
Vowel sounds are produced with an open vocal tract and airflow through the mouth. They are characterized by the position of the tongue, lips, and jaw, which determine the specific sound produced. Vowels are typically voiced and form the nucleus of a syllable.
