Scrabble Word of the Day -- HET

If you're a Scrabble zealot, you probably have all of the possible 3-letter words memorized. If not, here's one I ran into the other day (since I'm still learning them).

There was actually an opportunity to use HET in one spot, and it would have done me a lot of good to do so, but I later found that both my opponent and I wanted to look it up after the game to see if it was legit. It is. It's a variation of "HETH" -- a Hebrew letter.

The beauty of HET, of course, is that the words "HE" and "ET" are both frequently used in a Scrabble game, so when you see them, you know that you can easily add to them while building a new word in another direction.
