Default 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? Send this to 5 People and the answer will pop up on the screen automatically

Would it not help if it was worded properly:

"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?"

The original post is a nonsense and doesn't work at all - seems the poster has riddled himself!

There are in actual fact hundreds. The original post does not say "words in the English dictionary" it says english language of which there is ancient english, middle english and modern english. There are also multiple dialects which encompass those words.

And then there's Scottish. A language that anyone with minimal grasp of "english" can read and understand, yet to try and decipher from spoken, the speaker may aswell be talking Urdu.

At least the Welsh have the decency to write thier gibberish as it sounds.
