There are three words in the English language that end in -GRY. Two are HUNGRY and ANGRY. The third one everyone uses every day and knows what it stands for. If you listened carefully, I already told you what the word is. What is the third word?"

At some time someone will read all the way through a discussion before posting in it - as you already have the answer "language" but no one seemed to have read that posting oh well - to all that only read the last post - the answer is LANGUAGE....

I am curious, why did the original author of this discussion state there were 3 words ending in GRY??? I have yet to find one and it definitely is not 'language' as it ends in AGE rather than GRY.

Thanks to new technology we can expand the list of words so painstakingly developed from paper sources above. In "The Exchange" column in the Winter 1994 issue of RQ (p. 144), Charles Anderson reports that the new Oxford English Dictionary on CD-ROM permits left-hand truncation, which allows one to search for suffixes and word fragments. Using this feature, several additional words were found: a-hungry, begry, conyngry, higry-pigry, iggry, land-hungry, leather-hungry, man-hungry, mawgry, nangry, skugry, unangry, and yerd-hungry. (It is left as an exercise for the reader look i did the simple thing look it up and found this!!

Gotta love how people don't bother reading the other reponses to a question before posting.

I would agree that "language" is the 3rd word as well. The initial sentence just served as a smokescreen.

You need to put it this way: Think of words ending in "-gry". "Angry" and "hungry" are two of them. There are only three words in "the English language." What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is. The answer is language. It is the third word of "the English language". The question needs to be spoken, otherwise the quotation marks give away the trick. This version apparently originated in 1996.
