NR%3!=0 NR is number of processing line. If the awk command reads the first line, then value is 1, if it read 2nd line, then NR is 2..so on..

so, we are checking whether NR is multiple of three or not.

if not, just print the record.
if yes, print the record with new line.

substr($0,2,length) used to extract the words from the 2nd character of the line
