A triplet is a set of three words that are linked by a common fourth word. Here's an example:

MAKER - TENNIS - STICK

What word links these three words? The linking word should appear before or after each of the three words to form well-known compound words or phrases.

The correct answer for this triplet is MATCH as in match maker, tennis match, and match stick.

Here are 27 more triplets for you to solve. After you have solved all of them, read the first letters of the link words for an amazingly accurate listing of your personality traits.
