Not when I say them, but maybe there's a slight difference when I'm using them in conversation. I've never paid attention.
Odd. To me they sound nothing alike. Also, looking at that quiz, the a in "bath" and "bat" don't seem alike, though a bit similar. Do some people say them exactly alike? I can feel my tongue move up when saying "bath".
Born and raised and yet I still cringe when I hear that lol
So do I!
