I do not understand why everyone say that there is no answer to this riddle when in fact there is. Yes there are several words that end 'gry', however in this riddle they are asking for a word that key words "everyone uses everyday" and that if you pay attention the riddler gives you the answer. Well the answer is the word is gry. In english gry is a measurement of small amounts. EVERYONE use gry (small amounts) EVERYDAY of something, time, indregients etc. So ther you have it folks the mystery solved and the answer was there the whole time. LOL
