Brain Killer

System

Can someone help me with this? It's from a friend who doesn't even know the answer but maybe a forum friend can figure it out:


A RIDDLE THAT'LL KILL YOUR BRAIN!

This is going to make you 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?

Apparently there are over 100 words/phrases that end in GRY - most of them are no longer used, but the answer to the riddle is "What". It is the third word.
