Yes, I remembered that there was (at least) one other conlang
that did this, just couldn't recall which one. Ajuk, I'll have
to remember that.

I like the -ij of Dutch too, though with a different pronunciation
then, right Mrs. Rempt-Drijfhout? :)

I want to have more diphthongs in Rinya! But I don't want to
change the phonology again! Oh well. Back to the drawing table...

rinya > rinya > rijnya > rijnya
rinya > rijnya > rijnja
rinya > rinja > rijnja > rijna

rijna røjna rouna ryjna

So many possibilities!

If I decide on { rijna } then it could be pronounced either [rijna]
or [rejna] depending on dialect. Hmm...
