Thanks Phil so its AGGRY.

This had me frustrated. Several respondents to the query suggested that it
was a trick question but I couldn't believe that such a common grouping of
letters would not create and ending for more than two words.

I wonder how many aggrys (or aggries ?) would be needed to purchase
Manhattan Island?

But I guess that's another question.

Thanks again.
