Great work as always, Keenyn! Your point about stress/emphasis makes me think of the late actor Matthew Perry's character Chandler Bing on "Friends" and the unique cadence he developed emphasizing the wrong words in a sentence. (The New York Times has a good article on this.)

Namaste my dear Madam ♥️ ❤️ 💕 An invincible determination can accomplish almost anything and therein lies the great difference between great people and little people, but you can also tell a man struggling in the water to rest at an arm's length from the shore. ! I have to reach him first, and then I will rest. Good night ✨️ 🌙 💫 Have a wonderful night ✨️ 🌙 💫 ♥️ 🌹 🤝 💖💝👍💗💋✌️💓💕

The Cambridge UK pronunciation of 'didn't' is how I was taught and the way everybody says it I know in the U.S. The Merriam-Webster pronunciation didn't ˈdid-ᵊnt is also the way I was taught and the way everybody I know in the U.S. pronounces the word. It sounds unnatural the way you're teaching and to what the majority of people use. In this case the majority of people's pronunciation of 'didn't' is the correct way to say it. It is not correct to say 'did' followed by X.
