The real word is "ornery" though many people pronounce it "on-er-ee" or "on-ree". It means to be mischievious. It is often used to describe the actions of rambunctious children.

on-ree
Coming from a latin background, to be onree is to be a smart ass, to disagree because you think its funny, or want to do something because you know it will be hard to do.
