The most complete and, at the same time, the most simple description of the first triad of vibrational states of the H{sub 2}O molecule in the ground electronic state was constructed on the assumption that the vibrational degeneracy observer is not accidental but is caused by the presence of a symmetry group for the main contribution to the molecular motion under consideration, which is larger than the point group of a molecule. Using this approach, a family of coupled quasi-degenerate states is described through the use of the coordinate spin operator. 10 refs., 1 fig., 3 tabs.
