Myrrh? My mom was playing a word game and it gave her that as a word (she was supposed to guess it by the letters). We had actually heard of the word before but didn’t remember it so we only got it by cheating

 

[Chaeee]

Yes, because of the three wise men

 

[DearEagleZ]

Never heard of it tbh.

Yeah I’ve heard of it. Does it have smth to do with a tree? If not, it’s one of those words I know I know and have seen but can’t recall the definition off of the top of my head

Yep, it’s a resin extracted from certain trees, commonly used in perfume and that kind of stuff

 

[RockyGoose]

Yes, I heard that word, knowing it from the story about the birth of Jesus.
In my native language we call it "myrra"

 

[Willow]

I knew that word and I know the game you’re talking about. I tried to play it in English but it was way too hard so I ended up playing only in French

 

[athenaaa]

Yes because that was one of the gifts given to the baby Jesus when he was born why do I still remember stuff from Catholic school

 

[lexus]

It sounds like a noise my cat would make

 

[Yerichu]

I never knew this was a word, I though it said myth but nevermind
And it looks looks like martyr

 

[Tickita]

Yeah, from Shrek

 

[Dreamer_of_Songs]

Yes, and it's from the story of the 3 wise men (Los 3 Reyes Mago). It was one of the 3 items gifted to Baby Jesus along with gold and frankincense.

I have. It's mirra in Spanish, and it's one of the gifts from the three wise men to newborn Jesus.
