Think of words ending in GRY. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are three words in the English language. What is the third word?
Hint
If you read what I wrote carefully, I have already told you the answer.Answer
The answer is 'language'. The first two sentences are just to throw you off. Take off the first two sentences, you get: There are three words in THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. Think of the THE in that sentence as word #1 and ENGLISH in that sentence as word #2, then LANGUAGE is the third word.Hide Hint Show Hint Hide Answer Show Answer

There are two words that end with "gry".

Everyone knows what it means.
If you have been listening,

csd- actually you are incorrect. That word, aggry, is not common at all. In fact I have never heard of it. The other words in the dictionary are also not common.
just because they are not common does not mean they are not being used and that they are not around
There are nearly 100 words that end in gry. Gry is a word, also.
Thats a good one. That teaser has benn bothering me for months, because I haven't looked anywhere for it. I would have never thought of that!

I loved it was lost but also thought it belonged in the trick category

Tricky! Trick!
knowing it was a trick made it easy, but still fun
haha i got that one!
I so nearly got it, but then I just didn't at the last second. Bleh.
Hey QtistLilSHorty or however u spell ur name: He didn't mean "aggry" was commonly used, he meant "what". (it says "what is the third word.)

You guys are in need of special help. we could over examine all the teasers and change the name from braingle to "Examiners" or "Dissectors"
lol i remember a teacher once told my class that one a few years ago its funny tho, it fools everyone
the first two sentences totally caught me off guard!!! i felt really stupid when i saw the answer!
I noticed that but I didn't think it was part of the trick!
Got it.
Easy and I'm 10.
