I'm simply wondering how those two words can be so similar yet not at all. One is gain, the other is a-gain but is non pronounced as if there were simply an 'a' added to the front of it.Like (1)

Gain=getting something
Again=repetition of getting something
Yeah, BamPow is right, it should be regain; again should mean "not getting something" or "losing something" (because of the prefix a)Like (1)

It makes sense, although "regain" would be the correct way to say....unless you were talking about lost hair, in which case, "Rogaine" would be the correct way to say it.

Are you British? Because in the US those two words are not pronounced similarly, the A apparently makes the rest of the word completely different.

You're talking about the pronunciation, but I was referring to the meaning. The English language is full of quirks in spelling, usage, and pronunciation, which is what makes it a challenging language to learn for those who didn't grow up speaking it.
