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 you use every day. If you have listened carefully I have already told you the answer.

The simple answer to that riddle would be the word 'language' because of the way it was written. You would simply ignore the first and last 2 sentences and it basically gives you the answer. However this riddle has been passed around so much that there are now several variations of it each with its own answer.
Here is a good article explaining it:
