Learning My Threes

Today, I've been studying the three letter words. A player like me - who does decently at NSA Club #56 (albeit in the intermediate division) - should already know his threes, so I decided it would be a good thing to get out of the way first. I know a good portion of them already, so learning them all shouldn't be too hard.

Below are some threes that I think are neat words and their definitions, per the official Scrabble dictionary:

• ALB (my initials) - a long sleeved vestment.
• ASP - a venemous snake
  
• DAK - transportation by relays of men and horses
• FIL - a coin of Iraq and Jordan
  
• GAM - to visit socially
  
• IGG - to ignore
• KEA - a parrot
• LEU - a monetary unit of Romania
• MOR - a forest humus
• PAM - the jack of clubs in certain card games
• PAP - a soft food for infants
• PYX - a container in which the Eucharistic bread is kept
• RIA - a long narrow inlet
• SOM - a monetary unit of Kyrgyzstan
• TIL - the sesame plant
• URP - to vomit
• YOB - a hooligan
