MODERATORS
I'm referring to American English specifically. "o" would make me think it's pronounced "thoat", but it's the sound I meant.
"thorough" rhymes with "oh" in Standard American English.
"Hiccough" is a good one. I always hated that spelling and prefer "hiccup" for that reason.
TIL those are both pronounced the same way. (Gaol/jail is worse, though.)
Yeah o on its own is definitely unclear. I meant o as in "cot". (As in the American cot-caught merger.)
I feel "ah" would be a better shorthand for the vowel in "palm" or "bra", or "car" in non-rhotic accents.
