The "third -gry word" riddle

The Internet has been buzzing with a word riddle: "There are three common words that end with -gry, all of which you use every day. Two of them are angry and hungry. What is the third?"

Give up? Don't worry. Aside from formations such as man-hungry, the only two words that qualify are not common. One is gry itself, which the Oxford English Dictionary defines as an obsolete unit from John Locke's make-believe measurement system, equal to about a tenth of an inch. And Webster's Third New International lists aggry, a prehistoric bead.

So unless you routinely measure your aggries in gries, there is no answer to the question. One Web site (www.word-detective.com/) speculates that the whole thing is a misquote of one of those trick-question riddles.

Thank you.

But that doesn't solve the riddle, since they aren't common. I'm pretty sure it's a trick. I can't remember the solution, but you'll be pissed when you find out.

Might well be especially when i could have won some petrified time with it.

That was it, number two. The third word is "language".
