Точно так же как похожее слово "farther," на конце "er" произносится как schwa (/ə/), нейтральный английский звук "uh."

• Farther - /ˈfɜːrðər/ - - сравнительное от far - дальше, далее.  Oтносится к физическому расстоянию (в пространстве или длине).

"a" в слове "farther" произносится как широкий английский звук "ah" - как "a" в слове "father". Это длинный, открытый звук
