The Trap: Single-syllable words like "dhin" carry primary acoustic prominence in isolation, but can be swallowed in rapid connected speech.

When "dhin" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "dhin is" sounds like "dhin-iz").

In natural sentences, avoid over-stressing "dhin" unless it conveys the core contrast or focal point of your message.
