Not all words in this list are acceptable in Scrabble tournament games. Scrabble tournaments around the world use their own sets of words from selected dictionaries that might not contain all the words listed here. Qi is the most commonly played word in Scrabble tournaments, [10] and was added to the official North American word list in 2006. [11]
This list contains acronyms, initialisms, and pseudo-blends that begin with the letter Q. For the purposes of this list: acronym = an abbreviation pronounced as if it were a word, e.g., SARS = severe acute respiratory syndrome , pronounced to rhyme with cars
While such words are technically outside the scope of the list as defined by its title, they are usually terms borrowed from languages (in these cases Chinese and Arabic) where the Q is an ordinary consonant that may or may not be followed by U, like almost all the words currently in the list are. --Theurgist 23:38, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

The answer is "energy". The riddle says that the word ends in the letters g-r-y; it says nothing about the order of the letters. Many words end with "-rgy", but energy is something everyone uses every day. There are at least three words in the English language that end in "g" or "y". One of them is "hungry", and another one is "angry".
A mark, resembling the Arabic numeral two (2) and placed on the median line after the letter (e.g. eᷣ), indicates tur or ur, which occurs generally at the end of the word. Alternatively it could stand for ter or er but not at the end of the word. (Nordic languages, such as Old English, have a lightning-bolt-like mark for words ending in er.)
