3 ms·I’m pretty sure the vowel sounds the same in cog and cock in US English.by toxik 6y agoI’m pretty sure the vowel sounds the same in cog and cock in US English.luckylion 6y agoRight, but the ending does not, does it? "cog" and "cock" are like "god" and "got", "dog" and "dock(er)". Are people getting upset when they say "cogwheel" or "a small cog in a big wheel"?toxik 6y agoThen I simply don't understand. Coq au vin is pronounced cock, not cog.
