A RIDDLE THAT'LL KILL YOUR BRAIN!
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?
I haven't been able to figure it out.......but then again I only just got up.

I've been duped........the way it played here, the riddle would have been IMPOSSIBLE to figure out, because of the fact that the quote marks were left out.......sigh.......
Language IS the correct answer.
Sigh......
