I have post I thread, and you guys told me that "a" in "car" sounds different to"o" in "hot". I found out it is different, and can someone tell me r there any words sounds same like "ar" in "car"? Except other spelling or just "ar" spelling.Thankx.

<<bath fast last cast etc.>>

That only has the same vowel as "car" in certain dialects, however, not all. For many speakers, especially North Americans and North UKers, they don't have the same vowel as "car" does.
