Sound out renwI' letter by letter:

• rrlightly trilled or rolled r

• www as in 'way'

• 'ʔglottal stop, the catch in 'uh-oh'

• [T]here is a verb ren that means design or map out or plan. He [Maltz] said that renwI' (which I guess in its most general sense means designer) is a perfectly good term for architect, but it can also be used for someone who designs a vehicle, say. That is, it's not restricted to buildings. ¶ He said it would not be used for architect in the sense of someone being the architect of a plan to do something; it has to be used of a person who designs a physical object of some sort.
