Can Anyone tell me the answer.

 

 

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?

 

Please Reply ASAP.

It is "language" or the word "gry" itself

This particular riddle is a very old one.This riddle has several versions depending on the question. In this case the answer is neither ''language'' nor ''gry'', Rishi.

I already know the answer, so I won't give it and let others guess. It's a little bit of a twist ,the answer is rather simple.

The answer is ENERGY. Energy is consumed/released everyday and it is no where mentioned that the word had to follow the order of the three letters G-R-Y. It was a trick.

Actually, Savvy, it is mentioned that the word letter order must be "g-r-y," as it is phrased as "ends in 'gry.' "

Had the question stated that the last three letters were g, r, and y in some discrete manner, then yes, you'd be correct.

*It may be more convincing when proposed aurally, as there'd be less definition about how the question was originally phrased.

i donot get what you mean by that
 

The answer is going.
It is the third word in the question, and the rest of the question is irrelevant: a red herring designed to put the solver off.
