According to the Oxford English Dictionary, five words in the English language end in -gry. In addition to the common angry and hungry:
aggry, a glass bead found buried in the earth in Ghana.
puggry, a light scarf wound around a hat or helmet to protect the head from the sun, and
meagry, of meager appearance.

You misstated the riddle. :) It's supposed to be:
"Think of words ending in -gry. 'Angry' and 'hungry' are two of them. What is the third word in the English language?"
Of course the third word in "the English language" is "language".
If you mean the question literally, there is no other -gry word that's anywhere near common, but there are at least 14 several obscure ones, so obscure that you've never heard them. See here: http://www.askoxford.com/asktheexperts/faq/aboutwords/gry?view=uk

A three word exchange! I am hungry. Get it? Those are three words that end in "gry," you didn't say that all the words had to end in "gry." Other than that, I have no clue, lol.
