Edit: I don’t mean they sound the same I mean the word arse is pronounced how I figured British would pronounce ass with the drawn r rather than the way arse is pronounced (at least where I’m from) it’s a hard r

Ass is pronounced ass and arse is pronounced arse
They are generally used differently at least in the bit of the UK I’m from
Ass is the body part/animal and rarely used as an insult
Arse is primarily used as an insult “I don’t like him the man’s an arse”
I have zero clue how it evolved this way beyond (to me at least) calling someone an ass just sounds wierd.
Ass is very rarely used to mean the body part in the UK
