Pronunciation & Spelling
The words arm (/ɑːm/), army (/ˈɑːmi/), and armor (/ˈɑːmə/) all begin with the same /ɑːm/ sound as armored, but none is a perfect rhyme because armored adds /əd/. Bored (/bɔːd/), colored (/ˈkʌləd/), and ignored (/ɪɡˈnɔːd/) end in -ored in spelling and are useful lookalikes, but their vowel sounds differ from /ɑːməd/.
