This 'riddle' has been circulating in email for years now, in various forms of words, and had appeared in print media before that. Dictionary and reference departments the world over have been plagued by questions about it. It seems to have originated as a trick question, but the wording has become so garbled in subsequent transmission that it is hard to tell what was originally intended.\n\nThe most probable answer is that, in the original wording, the question was phrased something like this: \n\nThink of words ending in -gry. 'Angry' and 'hungry' are two of them. What is the third word in the English language? You use it every day, and if you were listening carefully, I've just told you what it is.\nThe answer, of course, is 'language' (the third word in 'the English language').\n\nThere are several other English words ending in -gry which are listed in the complete Oxford English Dictionary, but none of them could be described as common. They include the trivial oddities un-angry and a-hungry, and \n\naggry: aggry beads, according to various 19th-century writers, are coloured glass beads found buried in the ground in parts of Africa. \nbegry: a 15th-century spelling of beggary. \nconyngry: a 17th-century spelling of the obsolete word conynger, meaning 'rabbit warren', which survives in old English field names such as 'Conery' and 'Coneygar'. \ngry: the name for a hundredth of an inch in a long-forgotten decimal system of measurement devised by the philosopher John Locke (and presumably pronounced to rhyme with 'cry'). \nhigry-pigry: an 18th-century rendition of the drug hiera picra. \niggry: an old army slang word meaning 'hurry up', borrowed from Arabic. \nmeagry: a rare obsolete word meaning 'meagre-looking'. \nmenagry: an 18th-century spelling of menagerie. \nnangry: a rare 17th-century spelling of angry. \npodagry: a 17th-century spelling of podagra, a medical term for gout. \npuggry: a 19th-century spelling of the Hindi word pagri (in English usually puggaree or puggree), referring either to a turban or to a piece of cloth worn around a sun-helmet. \nskugry: 16th-century spelling of the dialect word scuggery meaning 'secrecy' (the faint echo of 'skulduggery' is quite accidental!).

It isn't a question so there is no ? at the end of the last statement of the riddle.  The 3rd word is "What."  Thus meaning, there is no 3rd -gry word in the English Dictionary.

This is a commonly misquoted riddle.  The riddle in original form is:\n\n"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."\n\nIn this case, the first two sentences of the riddle -- the "GRY" part -- is irrelevant to the riddle.  The actual answer is "language," because it is the third word in "the English language."  However, usually people misquote the riddle as the questioner just did, making the riddle impossible to solve without using ridiculously obscure words.  Don't rack your brain too hard.

There are no other "common" words in the English language that end in "gry".  There are however 2 other words that end in "gry" and they are AGGRY and PUGGRY.

The answer is "every," and the logic is as follows: There are three words, ending g, r and y. The first is "fuming," ending in g and meaning angry. The second is "eager," ending in r and meaning hungry. The third is "every," ending in y and clearly something that the word "everyone" uses.

Perhaps the answer to the original version of the puzzle was meagry or aggry (as in "aggry bead"). \nThere are over 100 obsolete words that end in "-gry" (see below), and these two were in use until fairly recently.\nThis is the (presumed) original version of the puzzle from 1975. The possible answers (if obsolete words, names, and hyphenated compounds of "angry" and "hungry" are allowed) are plentiful. Most of the 124 listed below were in the 1933 edition of the Oxford English Dictionary, and all have appeared in some major dictionary of English:\n\n\naffect-hungry fire-angry MacLoingry Seagry \naggry Gagry mad-angry self-angry \nAgry girl-hungry mad-hungry selfe-angry \nahungry gonagry magry sensation-hungry \nair-hungry gry malgry sex-angry \nanhungry haegry man-hungry sex-hungry \nBadagry half-angry managry Shchigry \nBallingry hangry mannagry shiggry \nbegry heart-angry Margry Shtchigry \nbewgry heart-hungry maugry sight-hungry \nboroughmongry higry pigry mawgry skugry \nbowgry hogry meagry Sygry \nbraggry hogrymogry meat-hungry Tangry \nBugry hongry menagry Tchangry \nChockpugry hound-hungry messagry Tchigry \nCogry houngry music-hungry tear-angry \ncony-gry huggrymuggry nangry th'angry \nconyngry hund-hungry overangry tike-hungry \ncottagry Hungry Bungry Pelegry Tingry \nCroftangry hwngry Pingry toggry \ndiamond-hungry iggry Podagry ulgry \ndog-hungry Jagry Pongry unangry \ndogge-hungry job-hungry pottingry vergry \nDshagry kaingry power-hungry Vigry \nDzagry land-hungry profit-hungry vngry \neard-hungry Langry puggry war-hungry \nEchanuggry leather-hungry pugry Wigry \nEgry ledderhungry red-angry wind-hungry \neuer-angry life-hungry rungry yeard-hungry \never-angry Lisnagry scavengry yird-hungry \nfenegry losengry Schtschigry Ymagry \n\nSince there is no longer a real answer to this, modern versions of the puzzle have turned from being puzzles to being riddles. There are perhaps as many as a dozen versions in circulation - each with a different answer!\n\nTake a look at \nhttp://www.fun-with-words.com/word_gry_angry_hungry.html

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.\nThe answer is language.\nIt 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. \n\nThere are three words in the English language that end in the letters g-r-y. Two are "hungry" and "angry." Everyone knows what the third word means, and everyone uses it every day. What is the third word?\nThe answer is energy.\nThe question asks for a word ending with the three letters g-r-y, but does not stipulate that they must be in that order. \n\nThis is the (presumed) original version of the puzzle from 1975. The possible answers (if obsolete words, names, and hyphenated compounds of "angry" and "hungry" are allowed) are plentiful.
