Sressed vowels CURE, POWER, FIRE

Of interest in these groups is their tendency to be firmly disyllabic, with /w/ separating the syllables in CURE and POWER, and /j/ separating them in FIRE. The first syllable in CURE tends towards the  found in TUESDAY; the first syllable in POWER exhibits the variation between [au] and [əu] found in MOUTH; and the first syllable in FIRE falls in with the division between [ai] and [əi] found in PRICE. In their final syllable, all three tend towards an  realization.
