Here you will find several answers to this infuriating teaser, which
is more of a hoax than a puzzle:

Don't bother looking for another common English word that ends in
-gry, after the pattern of hungry and angry. There is no such word.

There are many words in the English language ending in -ance.

'Sentance' is not among them.

The answer is Language. You asked for the third word in the phrase,
"the english language", therefore the answer is, "language".
