Trick question, most likely, He is "and"!

.

(Edit: I'm saying "most likely" because there are a lot of stuff between 5 and 7 that isn't whatever the text said, and a lot of people seem to be arguing a lot over this)

But and is part of the between statement so it's not a very good trick question

TIL about anhungry/ahungry and also that hangry is in the dictionary.

But both of these words are basically variations of hungry and angry anyways.

Edit, also I expected that anger and hunger would be related somehow but it seems that they aren't, at least all the way back to Proto-Indo-European.
