This is going to make you so MAD!
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?

Actually, many words end in -gry, including gry itself, although all but angry and hungry are rare, foreign, obscure or obsolete.The most common "answers" are aggry, a burial bead from Ghana, puggry, a scarf worn around the neck in India to protect the head from the sun, and anhungry, an obsolete form of hungry that was used once in one of Shakespeare's less-popular plays (Coriolanus, Act I, Scene I, line 209); this association with the Bard is enough to earn it a place in Merriam-Webster's Third New International (unabridged) Dictionary of the English Language. More words that end in -gry are listed below.
Gry is also, alone by itself, a word. In fact it's two completely separate words that can be found in large unabridged English dictionaries. (According to Merriam-Webster's Second New International (unabridged) Dictionary of the English Language, originally published in 1934, both are pronounced to rhyme with "cry.") One gry comes from Romany (the language of the Gypsies) and means "horse". The other gry comes from Greek and means "a trifle, a very small amount, a very short line". In the latter sense it has been used as an actual unit of measurement
"But none of those are the answer," you groan. "None of those are the third word." And you're right. None of them are. There is no answer.

Language (as you make the statement, "there are three words in the English language")
Therefore the third words is "language"
