Colin Farrell's overly exaggerated 'Oirish' accent aside, law, pronounced 'loor' ends more with a vowel sound, in that the 'r' really just accents the 'oo', giving the transitional 'r' that comes between 'law' and 'and' the same role as it would have between 'here' and 'it'.
Don't American's do the same thing with 'law', only making it more like "laar". Would they not have the same "laar-r-and the, laar won" thing? Or is it just another case of American exceptionalism?
