Elevated pitch, sustained vowel length, and full acoustic clarity.
As a single-syllable word, "inj" receives full primary stress when spoken in isolation, though it may take a reduced weak form in connected speech when acting as a function word.
Common Pronunciation Traps & Learner Mistakes
The Trap: Single-syllable words like "inj" carry primary acoustic prominence in isolation, but can be swallowed in rapid connected speech.
How Native Speakers Say It: Sustain vowel clarity without rushing into the trailing consonant. Elevate pitch slightly when "inj" carries the primary contrast or new information in a sentence.
Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow
When "inj" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "inj is" sounds like "inj-iz").
In natural sentences, avoid over-stressing "inj" unless it conveys the core contrast or focal point of your message.
