the.com/trio
Two is a couple, three is a plot — someone's always slightly outnumbered.
means A group of exactly three people or things, often performing or acting together.
from From French trio, borrowed from Italian trio, built on the Latin root tri- meaning 'three' (as in triplex or trinus). Italian musical vocabulary shaped the word's early use in English — a 'trio' named three voices or instruments playing as one unit — before it spread to mean any threesome of people or objects.
