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?
I don't know the answer here, please help me!

The secret here is that the real question is "There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word?" That is, there are only three words in the phrase "the English language". The third word is "language", which is indeed something we use every day. The first two words are "the" and "English".

The third word in the English language is, of course, language, which is certainly something we use every day.
Told you...

i don't know why you'd let a riddle kill your brain
in general riddles are known to be plays on words that make you feel stupid at the end.
so who gives a shit

but the way Co-existence phrased it, it WAS wrong.
· there aren't THREE words in the english language that end in ~gry.
· the way the question was asked, the last word HAD to end in ~gry, as well as the two others - which is not the case.
there is no trick, it is just plain wrong... (i'm not frustrated because i didn't find it, i didn't even bother searching)

gry = 3 letter abbreviation for grey
as blu is to blue yel is to yellow
therefore gry means what it stands for :)
thats my guess

Pfft, the answer isn't fucking language! That would mean that hungry and angry are part of the phrase 'the English language'.

You've fucked that one up. It's: What gets wet whilst you get dry? And it's stupid, there are plenty of answers.
