Same as dot, dart, tot, tart, etc don't rhyme.

Does 'thought', for you, rhyme with 'fart'?
South African Homophones. Now there's food for thought.

He also forgot "were". I am surprised about "weigher", I wouldn't have pronounced that the same way as "where", "were" or "ware". But English pronunciation isn't my strong side, as I have learned my English mostly by reading.

Where, wear and ware are homophones, but not were.

Were matches with whirr. Weigher rhymes with layer.
