What? Not in my accent. Is yours one of those where "claws" and "doors" rhyme?
Yes Claws and Doors rhymes in my accent.
How else would you pronounce them?
different vowel sounds (short A like "father" versus long O like "oat")
different final sounds (one ends with the mouth still on the vowel sound, one ends with an R sound)
Klaas and doh-errs.
Close enough, though "doors" is one syllable when I say it. Definitely not even a slant rhyme, though.
