    The vowel in father is pronounced closer to the front of the mouth and the vowel in bother is pronounced closer to the back of the mouth.

    Kamala has the father vowel, while comma has the bother vowel.

      Why is this downvoted? Who is downvoting linguistic facts?

      I guess linguistics is now political in this country.

      This country is so fucked.
