Your right! I must have seen that 100 times:), and I always just "saw" HIPA! Sometimes things get stuck in my mind the wrong way.
When I was a child, I pronounced pneumonia with the "p" and people looked at me strangely for a while (years).

I was this many years old when I learned that people apparently pronounce pneumonia without the "p".
French does not shy away from having silent letters, but strangely enough, we do pronounce the "p"s in pneumonie and psychologie.
I always giggle mentally when I have to not pronounce them in pneumonia and psychology.
What the hell, Anglo-Saxons? These "p"s are your pronunciation Waterloo? You gleefully pronounce all the things, but not these? smh
