Nine holes

 Nine holes is a two-player abstract strategy game from different parts of the world and is centuries old. It was very popular in England. It is related to tic-tac-toe, but even more related to three men's morris, achi, tant fant, shisima, picaria, and dara, because pieces are moved on the board to create the 3 in a row. It is an alignment game. 

The board is empty in the beginning. Players decide what colors to play, and who will start first. The game is then played through two stages:

Drop phase

Each player drops one piece per turn on any vacant space on the board. Players alternate their turns. Pieces cannot move until all three pieces have been dropped.

Move phase

After each player's three pieces have been dropped on the board, each player can move a piece to any vacant space on the board. Only one piece can be moved per turn.

Players can create the 3 in a row at either the drop phase or move phase, and win the game.

lordosis

 Lordosis is historically defined as an abnormal inward curvature of the lumbar spine.

anaphora

 In rhetoric, an anaphora (Greek: ἀναφορά, "carrying back") is a rhetorical device that consists of repeating a sequence of words at the beginnings of neighboring clauses, thereby lending them emphasis. In contrast, an epistrophe (or epiphora) is repeating words at the clauses' ends. The combination of anaphora and epistrophe results in symploce. 

For want of a nail the shoe was lost.
For want of a shoe the horse was lost.
For want of a horse the rider was lost.
For want of a rider the message was lost.
For want of a message the battle was lost.
For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
