Attention scrabble players: "sipe" is a word
Came across it in a book and had to look it up. And there it was! It's a cut in a tire tread to channel away water. Also a verb: to cut across a tire.

4. That's unpossible.
I never heard of the word in my life. It was placed in the dictionary seconds before I looked it up.

3. Not if you do it right
and sometimes you gotta play what you got.

Or... if somebody has the word "sip" with an open end, you can put in another word using the "e".
