Here are two examples that I have encountered ん＋や

> ずっと変｛へん｝な夢｛ゆめ｝を見｛み｝とったような気｛き｝がする **んや** けど・・・

another example:

> なんか、体調｛たいちょう｝悪｛わる｝い **んや** ない？

I am still trying to have a better sense of the letters that add up
individually to the end of the sentences in Japanese language, such as
ね、ん、さ、や. So in this case, my question is:

Is there any particular situation in which や is being commonly used after ん
and if so, what sort of expression it conveys? or we must always try to
understand them separately?

The meaning of んや
I am fairly certain that what you encountered is actually part of 関西弁｛かんさいべん｝,
or the regional dialect in Kansai. Sometimes Kansai dialect is used to add a
different feeling to a character. Sometimes it is to add humor (especially
when foreigners use it), but it really depends on the context in which it is
used.

[や is an element of
関西弁](https://www.nihongoresources.com/language/dialects/kansaiben.html) that
will replace だ at the end of a sentence. (Third listed item in the link
attached.) You will hear it commonly used in the following ways.

> Kansai: （そう/せぇ） **や** （ね/な）。  
> Normally: そう **だ** ね。
>
> Kansai: そうなん **や** 。  
> Normally: そうなん **だ** 。
>
> Kansai: … **や** けど。  
> Normally: … **だ** けど。

You will find that the past tense form of や is やった.

やない is the Kansai form of じゃない, as the link I included states.

The ん that you encountered is actually the contracted form of の from the
grammar principle [のです/んだ](http://maggiesensei.com/2010/09/08/request-lesson-
