Triplets

/ˈtrɪplɪts/ noun

Definition

Three children or offspring born at the same time to the same mother, or three identical or similar things grouped together.

Etymology

From Latin 'triplus' (triple) plus the suffix '-et' meaning 'small.' First used in English around the 1600s to describe multiple births.

Kelly Says

Identical triplets share nearly 100% of their DNA, yet they can still have completely different personalities—it's wild how much environment shapes who we become!
