Jumbo 1437 26a .Even FLAW doesn't sound right.
Flaw sounds OK.
I'm forced to agree with Jimmy, to pronounce flaw to sound like floor is a real stretch.
It sound exactly the same when I say it. Flaw, floor.
Pronunciation depends a lot on a persons accent etc.To me they sound alike.

Thank you folks . I am not totally convinced but I will enter flaw.
Being a Scotsman I would pronounce FLOOR as " FLOAR" ,which I think is much closer to Queen's English !?
Must be right but to me FLAW rhymes with DRAW, CLAW and PAW and FLOOR rhymes with DOOR, MORE and POOR
With my accent they all sound the same, FF. :-)

FLAW, DRAW, CLAW, PAW, FLOOR, DOOR, MORE, POOR.
So if you say SCORE DRAW (as in football results/pools check) does score rhyme with draw?
does to my ears ...
Sounds the same to me.
Furry nuff.
