Double letters, triple letters

There are plenty of words with double L, double T, double O... but are there any with double K? Or double H?

Yes.

Yes there are.

For double K you could have "bookkeeper." For double H you could have "hitchhiker."

But are there any words with triple letters?

Yes.

Yes there are.

But you must find them. Do I have to do everything around here?
