ks, I really have no idea. Sorry. But if I come up with anything, I'll let you know. My Mom knows the riddle. I'll see if she remembers the answer.

according to m-w.com, there's only 2...I typed in *gry and hungry and angry popped up but that's it.

This riddle is not phrased right. There should be no blank ____gry at the end of it.

The 3rd word is "language". The real question is "There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word?". The 3rd word in the phrase "the English language" is language!

Oh My Gosh! I cant believe it. Is that really it? Why was the question "reworded" like that?

That has been puzzling me since ks sent it to me!
