A lot of people who I've quizzed on this have gotten it wrong. Just curious as to how many can figure it out. If you know the right answer for certain, please don't post it.

I would have voted Nighman if you hadn't said that.
Now I'll go with Nym (Nimm) and voted Nimman.

The Swedish 'y'-sound, like in...eh...ok, it doesn't exist in English... Sad like the French 'u-sound'. Smiley

Like the Swedish y, the Turkish ü and the French and Dutch u.

English doesn't have that sound.
