"Okh," grumbled Van, "my kneecaps! That bench was cruel. And I am hongry."

- Nabokov, Ada, or Ardor.

responding to yarb's first comment: that's exactly why I put it on the list I did. :)

"In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt, I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hongry like the wolf..."
--Duran Duran, "Hongry Like the Wolf"

"One look at you and I can't disguise
I've got hongry eyes..."
--Eric Carmen, "Hongry Eyes"
(a song I hate because the lyricist apparently doesn't understand that objects of prepositions must be in objective case...)

"Everybody's got a hongry heart..."
--Bruce Springsteen

Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hongered for your touch
a long, lonely time.

- Unchained Melody (popular song)

The longer the honger, the hongrier the longer.

Is hongriness caused by honger?

I love it - it expresses a deep inner emptiness with that 'o'.

Is it hungrier than "starving"?
