Don't waste your time looking for the mythical 'third word ending in GRY'. If you have come here looking for it, read the explanation below and relax - you can stop searching. The story goes like this:
A riddle of this form is circulating widely on the Internet:
"There are three words in English that end in GRY, hungry and angry are two, what is the third?"
Much effort has gone into finding the word and various pseudo-medical or otherwise obscure words that purport to fit the bill have been put forward. The confusion comes from the fact that the version of the riddle in circulation isn't the original and misses a vital part of the wording. In its original form the riddle went like this:
"Think of words that end 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."
You will have realized by now that it's all a linguistic trick and the third word in 'the English language' is of course 'language'.

Slap him for trying to fool you lol
there isnt a third one there are only two this riddle has been sround since 1975 and your son changed it
he is being smart w/u. There are two ways to look at this problem. The first way is to realize that the puzzle says"there are three words in the english language" what's the third word? language, of course. the next way to look at it is that it says "i've given you the third word." so, simply, you must look at the third word in the question. Anyway, there is not really a thrid word in the english language that ends in gry. Go to this website because it will help u if you don't understand my answer.
as you will know by now,language is the answer.there are 3 other words in our language,aggry(a glass bead),puggry(a scarf), meagry(of meager appearance). try your little smart ar$e on them.
