My mind has been going for ages and I can't figure it out, it's probably dead easy, but if any of you lot knows the answer, then I will be able to sleep at night :lol:

There are three words in the English Language that end in -GRY:

1.) hunGRY
2.) anGRY
3.) ?????????-GRY.

IF ANYONE KNOWS IT, PLEASE TELL ME!!!

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?

The answer is 'language'. The key sentences are the second and third. If you just read those two, the answer is obvious. The first sentence is a ruse to throw you off. 'Language' is the only answer that fits the hints that follow those two sentence.


you took the question too literally and in a chinese whispers sort of way theres no way of answering it if it isnt asked right ;)
