It's bologna you dumb continental. Also cut and mat don't rhyme.

is there a difference between cut - cat in pronunciation?

Yes

sounds like two cats to me
care to explain the difference?
>>78251259
kat kät
>>78251409
first A is pronounced at the back of the mouth, other at the front
>>78251409
"cut" sounds like "cuck" but with a T instead of CK

There are a number of reasons, but the most important is the Great Vowel Shift. That and the fact we haven't updated the spelling in fucking forever.
