The word "rindles" may seem odd or unfamiliar, but it actually has a phonetic explanation for its spelling. In IPA, it is transcribed as /ˈrɪnd(ə)lz/, which shows that the first syllable is pronounced with a short "i" sound, followed by a voiced alveolar stop "d", and ending with an "lz" sound. The second syllable, "-les", is pronounced with an unvoiced alveolar lateral fricative and a voiced alveolar stop. Despite its unusual spelling, "rindles" can be pronounced correctly by following the IPA transcription.
