Is it correct to say that the pronunciation of O as the 15th letter of the English alphabet starts with a vowel sound the same as the sound of 'aw' as in word law? And, the pronunciation of I as the 9th letter of the English alphabet starts with a vowel sound the same as the sound of 'a' as in word father? If not, what sound does each of them start with? Thank you.
I would like to put my question a second way: Does a person learn to pronounce two additional vowel sounds when he learns to pronounce the alphabet letter O? And, if yes, what are the two vowel sounds? The same way is with the alphabet letter I. I mean in received "standard", not regional, UK and USA English pronunciation. Thank you.
