Does anchor have a short vowel sound?

The O is easy, it's a schwa sound. The A sound is a short A, but the N following the A is palletalized (softened). The A starts out as a short A sound, but then the tongue moves in preparation for the N and makes it sound as if a consonant-Y sound follows the A. It sounds different than the short A in "antler" for example. This is common among words with an "ang" or "ank" sound. See the web page at the related link below.
