Re: riddle
Supposedly the original riddle was verbal and was as follows:
There are at least three words In the English language that end in g or y. One of them is “hungry”, and another one is “angry”. There is a third word, a short one, Which you probably say every day. If you are listening carefully to everything I say, You just heard me say it three times. What is it? |

Re: riddle
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] thought i've heard of a riddle that says there is only three english words that end in the letters "gry". i can only get two. i'm not sure if there even is a third. anyone? [/ QUOTE ] There are only 2 commonly used words that end in -gry: Words The riddle is a play on words, and must be stated precisely: [ QUOTE ] The correct form of this riddle is: “Think of words ending in -gry. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses everyday. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.” Look familiar? The first two sentences have absolutely nothing to do with the riddle. They are there just to trick you. So ‘what is the third word?’ The third word is actually “language” if you answer this question correctly. “There are only three words in the English language.” Get it? Three words? THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. Last word language? [/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] This would only make sense verbally, because writing the riddle out like this, one would have to say "The English Language". You have to include the quotes, and thus, the riddle is given away. Verbally though, unless you are one of those losers who does the "air-quotes" when talking, nobody would catch this. Did I just quote 'air-quotes'? lol. What a h*mo I am. |
