Hello,
Could you please tell me if the pronunciation of this word is correct:
Powerpoint/paʊərpɔɪnt/, but in our daily life we pronounce it half English half French.
Another remark:
When I was watching a grammar's video I heard that the speaker who seemed to be an American, did not make the liaison in the following sentence: He has an English book.Is it necessary to make the liaison,isn't it? Or I misheard the pronounciation of "An English".
Thank you very much in advance.

Yes, it is necessary, but some people speak poorly.

I think the expression 'the sounds are the same as the IPA' means something like 'for the purposes of a very imprecise transcription of those speech sounds used in Standard English'.
