@@ -14,6 +14,10 @@ In the Cambridge English Pronouncing Dictionary (CEPD), the American English vow
Compared to the British <span class="pho">ɒ</span>, the American <span class="pho">ɑː</span> is pronounced with a slightly more open mouth, held a bit longer, and sounds more like <span class="pho">ɑ</span>. However, the shape of the mouth is slightly rounded. For instance, for the word *dog*, in British English, it's pronounced as <span class="pho alt">dɒg</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-uk-male="/audios/us/dog-uk-male.mp3" data-audio-uk-female="/audios/us/dog-uk-female.mp3"></span>, while in American English, it's pronounced as <span class="pho alt">dɑːg</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/dog-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/dog-us-female.mp3"></span>. Similarly, for *God*, it's <span class="pho alt">gɒd</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-uk-male="/audios/us/god-uk-male.mp3" data-audio-uk-female="/audios/us/god-uk-female.mp3"></span> in British English, but in American English it's elongated to <span class="pho alt">gɑːd</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/god-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/god-us-female.mp3"></span>.
但是，长元音 <span class="pho">ɔː</span> 在美式英语里，也许口型张得相对更大一些，但，并没有 <span class="pho">ɑ</span> 的音色。比如，*ordinary* <span class="pho alt">ˈɔːrdəneri</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/ordinary-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/ordinary-us-female.mp3"></span> 或者 inventory <span class="pho alt">ˈɪnvəntɔːri</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/inventory-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/inventory-us-female.mp3"></span>。
However, the long vowel sound <span class="pho">ɔː</span> in American English might require a slightly wider mouth opening, but it doesn't have the flavor of <span class="pho">ɑ</span> sound. For example, *ordinary* <span class="pho alt">ˈɔːrdəneri</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/ordinary-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/ordinary-us-female.mp3"></span> or *inventory* <span class="pho alt">ˈɪnvəntɔːri</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/inventory-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/inventory-us-female.mp3"></span>.
另外，在重读音节里，<span class="pho">ɔː</span> 可能会被美国人儿化，读成 <span class="pho">ɔːr</span> ，更像是双元音 <span class="pho">ɔər</span>。比如，*more* <span class="pho alt">mɔːr</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/more-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/more-us-female.mp3"></span>。
Additionally, in *stressed* syllables, <span class="pho">ɔː</span> might be rhotacized by Americans to sound like <span class="pho">ɔːr</span>, resembling the diphthong <span class="pho">ɔər</span>, for example, *more* <span class="pho alt">mɔːr</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/more-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/more-us-female.mp3"></span>.
