dil is not dill (notice the extra "L" you've added at the end?)
dil is a Turkish work for "language" so it represents the intention of
the project (a D language compiler).
Do you always assume that everything you read online is in English?
that wouldn't be a smart assumption as most of the world has a different
native language than English.
would you also assume [for example] that "Ubuntu" is some kind of
English word/slang?
