Rinya is a personal language. It was written by Daniel Andreasson. The language is written with a unique script. It is an active language (intransitive "subjects" can be marked as either A or P). Even the syntax is active. The active marking is based on control. Controlled events mark their sole argument as Agent, and non-controlled arguments are marked as Patient. The language also features umlaut, mutation, a negative verb and OVS word order.

Language sources
Originally Quenya, Sindarin, Tokana and Old Icelandic. Nowadays all active languages are inspiring, especially Lakhota and Central and Eastern Pomo.

Design principles
Originally to make it sound and look beautiful (to me). Nowadays both beauty and to make it fully active in all aspects.
