What the fuck are you smoking? I was born American and raised American and English is my one and only language. I dabble in Japanese but I'm no where near fluent in it. I know English like the back of my hand. Paw sounds NOTHING like the others and pour and poor DO sound the same.
And again, what the fuck are you smoking? Fairly good English skills? I'm sorry to say, but most of what I have typed (if not all) is perfect English in both spelling and grammar. By the way, English should be capitalized because languages are proper nouns.
And csxtitan, they do sound the same. The difference is the gender of the audio file. Ask any FLUENT English-born speaker to say it and you will see.

That's another thing that makes English hard to master.
There is a SLIGHT difference if you want to be a gaytard, but in general use they are the same. I live in a god damn English community so I know how English sounds, is used, and HOW to use it and speak it properly.
When I say they are the same I speak from experience as an English speaker, not an onlooker who probably doesn't use English in their everyday lives. If you come to the USA you will see a lot of the shit you're taught in school about English will fall apart right before your eyes. You can call it an American accent, you can call it butchering the English language, but truth be told, it is the norm, the standard, it is English.
If you want to pronounce poor like poo-er, then be my guest. As a fair warning though, it's pronounced like pour.
