Can anyone name anymore than angry and hungry?
How about words that begin with "dw"? Dwell, dwindle and dwarf. Are there anymore?

You're in luck! I can think of one of each off the top of my head:
dwale - has something to do with delirium
aggry - I came across this word in a friend's textbook and don't know quite what it means, but it left an impression just because I so rarely note a "gg" combination. If I were to guess, I think it has something to do with decoration, perhaps adornment.
Surely there are more...great topic!

...and 10 seconds in I'd already added that dictionary page to my favourites! That's great; I thought you had to pay for a decent online dictionary. So aggry refers to ancient African beads. I can see my company losing a lot of my minutes to that site.

Hey,
Thanks for the help. You were right. Aggry is a word. I read the caption about "gry" and the answer is language? What the fuck does that mean.
Thanks for the help.
I figured that there were many more dw words but could not think of any.

That is ridiculous. What a waste of my precious energy. Thanks for clearing that up.

I thought dwale was something of a drug-effect reference, but that doesn't appear to be the absolute case. This is the nerd in me's favourite topic in months, because I've never really looked around the internet for word-related stuff like this. Off to check out word-detective next.

dweeb
well... uh... unangry is a word.
Anhungry used to be a word I think.
This came up in my 8th grade English class.
I also brought it up at work within the last week.
