There are only three words in the English language that end in

I guess one clue would be all the ONE's and the other might be the
use of
the plural in "everyone uses THEM everyday." (Unless it is just bad
syntax.)
The tone is a little hell-fire and brimstone - makes me nervous
that not
getting the answer is going to be bad for my karma!
Well, the riddle is wrong, that is, it was written wrong. As such,
you aren't going to figure out the correct answer.
There are several "correct" ways to write it/say it, but the simplest
is:
Hungry and Angry end in GRY.
There are three words in the english language.
What is the third word.

Hint #1: Like all riddles, it has less to do with knowledge, and more
to do with exactly how the riddle was asked.

Hint #2: There are several (more than three) English language words
that end in GRY, Hungry and Angry are just the only two commonly used
ones.
If you still can't figure it out, email me and I'll give you the
solution.
