The Hebrew and Greek that is translated in English as “hungry” (or: “famished”) is translated in a number of ways:

• Noongar: “without stomach” (koborl-wirt) (source: Warda-Kwabba Luke-Ang)
• Kölsch translation (publ. 2017): nix zo Käue han or “have nothing to chew on” and singe Mage hät geknottert wie ne Hungk or “his stomach growled like a dog” (source: Jost Zetzsche)
• German New Testament translation by Berger / Nord (publ. 1999): Hunger überfiel ihn or “Hunger overtook (lit.: “attacked”) him” (in Matthew 4:2)
• Kupsabiny: “hunger ate him” (source: Kupsabiny Back Translation)
• Mairasi: “feeling tuber pains” (tubers are the main staple) (source Enggavoter 2004)
