The spelling of the word "Riayn" can be explained through IPA phonetic transcription as /raɪən/. This indicates that the first syllable is pronounced as "rye" with a long "i" sound, followed by a schwa sound in the second syllable. The "y" serves as a substitute for the phoneme /i/, and the final syllable is pronounced with a clear "n" sound. While not a traditional spelling, the pronunciation of Riayn can be understood through use of the proper phonetics.
