3. Can actually use ill as well, because yill and rill are actually words…at least according to dictionary.com

8. ‘ang’

   ‘nang’ is possibly questionable, but Urban Dictionary has an entry for it anyway.

   ‘uck’ works about as well as ‘ill’, if you allow a few … slang words.

10. @Johnny Cat:

    rill  [ril]
    –noun
    a small rivulet or brook.

    yill  [yil]
    –noun Scot.

    I got this from dictionary.com.
    (And don’t you know “Nill” is “nothing”?

12. @Tdl, nil is typically only spelled with one “l”.

    @Rai, “ang” and “uck” are not words. The instructions specified a three-letter *word*.
