Perhaps It Is Just an Outdated Word?

 


I often come across clues for the word nee

when I am doing crossword puzzles.

I remember learning this word as a youth. 

My mom had explained it to me and for some reason

it has stuck with me all these years. 

I dont know why. 

I have never used the word in conversation

nor do I remember her using the word in a sentence

but I will write the three letter word

whenever I come across the sometimes obscure hint

and Roland will ask what it is. 

I dont know why it stuck. 

I dont know anyone outside of the puzzle creators that use that word. 

I dont know if they use it in conversations. 

How bizarre!
