words having gry as a suffix?

Answer 1

angry and hungry, but if you're trying to answer that "there are three words in the english language" riddle, the answer is "language". trust me on this. i've seen this riddle a million times:-)

Answer 2

hungry, angry, Hungry (the country)

Words twenty years ago:

mawgry, iggry, gry, hungry, angry

Depends on if you mean present words or words used in the past. Hoped I helped! I gave more info because your question comes from that old riddle: 'There are three words in the english language. Two of them are hungry & angry. What's the third one?'

If you wanna figure it out, remember riddles try to throw you off. Don't think too hard! :) People say there's no answer, but then why is it a riddle??? Is it retorical? The world may never know...

Answer 3

Check the net.There are a few other words ending in gry but most are little used or old English. Here are some.

aggry: Coloured and variegated glass beads of ancient manufacture, found buried in the ground in Africa. A word of unknown origin. Seemingly always used attributively, as in aggry beads.

braggry: A variant form of braggery. Obsolete.

conyngry: An obsolete dialectal variant of conyger, itself an obsolete term meaning “rabbit warren”.

gry: The smallest unit in Locke’s proposed decimal system of linear measurement, being the tenth of a line, the hundredth of an inch, and the thousandth of a (“philosophical”) foot. Also the grunt of a pig, an insignificant trifle, or a verb meaning to roar. Obsolete.

iggry: Egyptian colloquial Arabic pronunciation of ijri: “Hurry up!”, brought back after the First World War by members of British and Australian forces who had fought in Egypt.

meagry: Having a meagre appearance. Obsolete.

nangry: A variant form of angry. Obsolete.

podagry: Dodder, or the condition of a plant infested with it.

puggry: A variant form of puggree, a light turban or head-covering worn by inhabitants of the Indian subcontinent.

It’s a pretty meagre (or meagry) selection ...

Answer 5

I think it should be said like this: Angry and hungry are two words that end in -gry. Those are two words but there's three in the English Language. What is the third word? Then you have your answer, which is Language.

Answer 6

You're referring to a riddle that has become mucked up with errors in time.

The riddle goes something like..."Think of words ending in E or Y. Hungry and Angry are two of them. There are three words in the english language, what is the third word."

The answer is "language." (third word in 'the english language')

However, this riddle has been circulating the internet written incorrectly. It now reads something like

"There are three words in the English language ending in GRY (not true)...blah blah blah"

If you NEED an answer, use "Gry." It is an archaic word, but it answers the riddle. But in reality, there is no answer to the circulating version of the riddle.

Answer 7

If you allow the words that have hungry as part of their words, there are loads of -gry words.
