Can you come up with pairs of Swedish words that are easy to confound?

Hej Italkers!

 

I am trying to train my ear to distinguish different Swedish sounds and in order to do that, I would like test myself on words that are the same except on one sound (which should be quite similar, to the foreign ear).

 

To make it more clear, I am looking for pairs like the next ones:

sil/sill

syl/syll

mål/moll

hel/häl

...

 

Can you come up with other pairs? The more the better! :D

 

Thank you a lot :)
