Answer 2

It is a puzzle, stated as you have, that has no answer. (See below, source given)

__________________________________________
FROM DICTIONARY.COM:

gry puzzle
"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?
Answer: "language".
This puzzle has circulated widely on the Internet for some years, but usually in an abbreviated form such as "Name three common English words ending in 'gry'", which has no good third answer.

________________________________________


From above, what it is saying is in the _original_ form of the riddle is that in the sentence, "There are three words in the English language," the third word IS in fact "language." (The 2nd being "English" and first being "the." The "gry" part is just a distraction and irrelevant to this sentence.)

The ambiguity could have been cleared up easily and illustrates, in fact, the need for punctuation. (Had they asked it as :

There are three words in "the English language." ...What is the third word?

You would have easily spotted it.)

Somehow over time the puzzle got abbreviated to something like what you asked, and the original meaning/riddle was lost. To this question, there is no answer.

Answer 3

This is the (presumed) original version of the puzzle from 1975. The possible answers (if obsolete words, names, and hyphenated compounds of "angry" and "hungry" are allowed) are plentiful. Most of the 124 listed below were in the 1933 edition of the Oxford English Dictionary, and all have appeared in some major dictionary of English: affect-hungry fire-angry MacLoingry Seagry aggry Gagry mad-angry self-angry Agry girl-hungry mad-hungry selfe-angry ahungry gonagry magry sensation-hungry air-hungry gry malgry sex-angry anhungry haegry man-hungry sex-hungry Badagry half-angry managry Shchigry Ballingry hangry mannagry shiggry begry heart-angry Margry Shtchigry bewgry heart-hungry maugry sight-hungry boroughmongry higry pigry mawgry skugry bowgry hogry meagry Sygry braggry hogrymogry meat-hungry Tangry Bugry hongry menagry Tchangry Chockpugry hound-hungry messagry Tchigry Cogry houngry music-hungry tear-angry cony-gry huggrymuggry nangry th'angry conyngry hund-hungry overangry tike-hungry cottagry Hungry Bungry Pelegry Tingry Croftangry hwngry Pingry toggry diamond-hungry iggry Podagry ulgry dog-hungry Jagry Pongry unangry dogge-hungry job-hungry pottingry vergry Dshagry kaingry power-hungry Vigry Dzagry land-hungry profit-hungry vngry eard-hungry Langry puggry war-hungry Echanuggry leather-hungry pugry Wigry Egry ledderhungry red-angry wind-hungry euer-angry life-hungry rungry yeard-hungry ever-angry Lisnagry scavengry yird-hungry fenegry losengry Schtschigry Ymagry

Answer 4

i cheated and googled words endnign with gry, was suprised what I found:

Gry (noun) - 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.

For example, from 1679 John Locke's Letters to Boyle, 1679:

"The longest ... was three inches and nine grys long, and one inch seven lines in girt."

Gry (verb) - To rage or roar.

For example, from Richard Crew's Tasso's Godfrey of Bulloigne, 1594:

"The hearing this doth force the Tyrant gry, With threatfull sound."
