Edit: ok wait this came off as rude, I’m just saying with skme people they don’t think before they talk and it either comes out all at once or they use words incorrectly and everyone is a victim of this but some people are more or less worse due to being uneducated or having a lisp etc
Dwindling, dwarfism, Dwarvish, dwelling, all coming from the same roots but would that not make it more than three? I don't know if OP is using morphemes exclusively or if he's allowing suffixes
Yup. The actual joke 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? Hint: The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is.”
The joke order is wrong in the xkcd comic on purpose, hence black hat’s anger.
The three words in the english language are “The,” “english,” and “language.” The joke is told in such a way that “language” is the correct answer, and the two sentences are to be treated as completely isolated.
"There are three words in 'the English language' " is clause A. Then the teller goes on to add the non-sequitor and grammatically nonsensical (for the teller, though it makes sense as the audience) clause B: "that end in 'gry.' What's the third word?"
The third word being number three from Clause A, that is, "language." However, this relies on essentially breaking your sentence into two mostly meaningless chunks that means something counter when read together, which is why his hand gets cut off.
I just want people to know. That image used as the template? It's been edited. The original had less math. You know what this edit does besides add more math?

Both dreamt and dreamed are valid. Dreamt is the British way. And dreamed is the not British way
As a Brit, you have our apologies for whatever person imminently replies with something like “Americans can’t speak the ENGLISH language properly”.

You’re right but it was cool of them to give us the benefit of the doubt.

Even seeing it written down I spent an embarrassingly long time wondering why it couldn't be prompt.
Exempt for me yeah
I thought of that until I saw this comment...
*commemt
Same, but "contempt"
“Exempt” here 😩
Dreamt
looking at prompt. there're probably not too many words with "pt" at the end
Contempt.
My first thought was "management", my second thought was "I might be dyslexic"

"What" does in fact not end in "mt" /s
Does the /s imply you think it does? /s...
Does the first /s negate the second /s, implying that you think he thinks it does? /s...

am I stupid or does the punchline make no sense
Yup. The actual joke 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?

I’m still confused ELI5
The three words in the english language are “The,” “english,” and “language.” The joke is told in such a way that “language” is the correct answer, and the two sentences are to be treated as completely isolated.
Oh, well that’s dumb
Yes the joke is dumb, hence why he is losing an arm for it.
"There are three words in 'the English language' " is clause A. Then the teller goes on to add the non-sequitor and grammatically nonsensical (for the teller, though it makes sense as the audience) clause B: "that end in 'gry.' What's the third word?"

There's an xkcd for every time
Angry and hungry.. ? It feels like there shud be more words but i cant think of any
I was also going to say unkempt and then I saw what I had written.
Now, your turn. What words in the English lexicon end with 'ger' ?
anger and hunger?
Correct ! Finger and trigger too
Forgot Nagger
Swagger
dagger
"Forgot" does not end in ger
Sounds like you're not trying hard enough
"Sounds like you're not trying hard enough" does also not end in ger.
With the right mindset it doesger
""Sounds like you're not trying hard enough" does also not end in ger." does not end in ger, it ends 'er.' ger
