With Cranberry Scrabble 3-Letter Words Flash Cards Scrabble players can increase their scores filling in hard-to-fill spots on the Scrabble board using the generous word list of cards and words such as QUA (“in the character or capacity of”) or RAH (“exclamation of encouragement”).
Even if they are not playing the popular board game, people can learn the exact spelling of a word such as AAL (“abbreviation: anterior auxiliary line”) or COX (from “coxswain”) as it appears on the front of the card and know the meaning of the word as it appears on the back of the flash card.
The 3-letter words of the flashcards can be used to defend one’s Scrabble moves or to increase one’s vocabulary. In both instances learning occurs, minds are improved, and “points” are scored!
