Edit: I don’t mean they sound the same I mean the word arse is pronounced how I figured British would pronounce ass with the drawn r rather than the way arse is pronounced (at least where I’m from) it’s a hard r

From what I’m gathering, they have very different pronunciations in British English as well. I’m not sure about this shower thought, it seems like OP might be the one that’s mistaken?
That’s a fair assumption lol I didn’t learn for a long time that it wasn’t just the English way of pronouncing ass. It flows perfectly with the other differences in word pronunciation that it never even crossed my mind they could be different words.
