Maybe her Italian heritage is from the region of the Dolomites.  And she knows "rint" isn't English.

I wrote her a note asking why she said it that way. If I get a reply, I'll

She frequently refers to her Italian, not German, heritage.

Anyway, the German pronunciation is more like "rint."

So, yeah, amazing.
