There are three words in the English language that end in "gry". ONE is angry and the other is hungry. EveryONE knows what the third ONE means and what it stands for. EveryONE uses them everyday, and if you listened very carefully, I've given you the third word.

What is it?

_____gry?

The question is worded incorrectly…Here is the proper wording…
Angry and hungry are two words that end in '-gry'. There are three words in the English language. What is the third word? Everyone knows what it means and everyone uses it every day. Look closely and I have already given you the third word. What is it?

__________I will post the answer on Monday if no one gets the answer….

Actually I haven't used the "third" word at all this week as I have eaten a lot of big meals… If you don't understand what I mean and want to spoil the riddle, check out this cool page which looks at the riddle, including the origin and variations.
