The vowel sound in bed is a short E sound (behd) as in the rhyming words bred, fed, led, red, and wed. Other rhyming words are spelled with EA (head, bread) or AI (said).

The short E sound is seen in other words such as debt, get, ten, when, pep, and words beginning with ex- (ehks).

Does came have a short a sound?

No, Came has the long A vowel sound, as in cane and blame. The E is silent. When the vowel sound is the same as saying the actual letter, the letter has the long sound. For example PALE, CEDE, LIME, TONE, TUBE have the sounds, A, E, I, O, U(mostly). Now CAN, BED, TIN, POT, BUN all have the short sound because when you say those words the vowel does not make a sound that is the same as saying the actual letter.
