triple-headed
Having three crowns
Triple-headed describes something with three heads.
The term applies to mythical creatures like Cerberus, the triple-headed dog guarding Hades, or to objects with three functional heads: a triple-headed electric razor, a triple-headed shower.
Figuratively, it can describe challenges or problems with three distinct aspects: a triple-headed crisis of inflation, unemployment, and debt.
