esfomeado در ۳۰ ثانیه
- Esfomeado means extremely hungry or starving.
- It's a more intense word than 'com fome'.
- Remember to match gender and number: esfomeado/a/os/as.
- Use it when you feel ravenous or after strenuous activity.
- Meaning
- The Portuguese word 'esfomeado' describes a state of extreme hunger, a feeling of needing or strongly desiring food. It's a more intense way to say someone is hungry.
- Usage
- You would use 'esfomeado' when someone hasn't eaten for a long time, is experiencing a particularly strong craving for food, or perhaps after a strenuous activity that has left them ravenous. It can be used literally to describe physical hunger, but also figuratively to express a strong desire for something else, though this is less common for this specific word.
- Intensity
- Compared to 'com fome' (hungry), 'esfomeado' conveys a much stronger sense of hunger. It's like the difference between feeling peckish and being starving.
- Examples in Context
- Imagine a child who missed lunch and is now waiting for dinner; they might exclaim, 'Estou esfomeado!' (I'm starving!). Or, after a long hike, a group of friends might say, 'Vamos comer algo, estou esfomeado!' (Let's eat something, I'm starving!). It's a word that vividly paints a picture of intense hunger.
Depois de correr uma maratona, ele estava completamente esfomeado.
A pequena raposa olhava para o frango com um olhar esfomeado.
- Basic Structure
- The most common way to use 'esfomeado' is with the verb 'estar' (to be) to describe a person's current state of hunger. The adjective must agree in gender and number with the subject.
Eu estou esfomeado.
Ela está esfomeada depois do treino.
Nós estamos esfomeados!
- Describing Others
- You can also use 'esfomeado' to describe someone else's hunger, often in a sympathetic or slightly humorous way.
O cão parece esfomeado; vamos dar-lhe comida.
Vê a cara dele? Ele deve estar esfomeado depois de tantas horas de trabalho.
- With Nouns
- It can also modify nouns directly, though this is less common for describing a person's state and more for describing an action or a characteristic.
Aquele gato tem um olhar esfomeado para o atum.
Era uma fome esfomeada que sentia.
- Everyday Conversations
- You'll hear 'esfomeado' frequently in informal, everyday conversations among Portuguese speakers, especially in Brazil and Portugal. It's a common way to express intense hunger when talking with friends, family, or colleagues.
'Estou esfomeado, vamos pedir uma pizza!'
- After Physical Activity
- It's very common to hear this word after activities that burn a lot of energy, such as sports, hiking, or even a long day of shopping. People will often use it to express their immediate need for food.
'Jogámos futebol a tarde toda, estamos esfomeados!'
- In Family Settings
- During family meals or discussions about food, 'esfomeado' is a natural choice to describe who is particularly hungry. It adds a touch of vividness to the conversation.
'O teu irmão está esfomeado, ele comeu tudo o que havia na geladeira.'
- Humorous Exaggeration
- Sometimes, people use 'esfomeado' for humorous exaggeration, even if they are not literally starving. It's a way to emphasize their strong desire for food playfully.
'Cheguei em casa e estava tão esfomeado que comi até a embalagem!
- Gender and Number Agreement
- The most frequent mistake for learners is forgetting to make 'esfomeado' agree in gender and number with the subject. Since it's an adjective, it must match. Forgetting this will sound unnatural.
Incorrect: Eu estou esfomeada (when the speaker is male).
Correct: Eu estou esfomeado.
Incorrect: As crianças estão esfomeado.
Correct: As crianças estão esfomeadas.
- Confusing with 'Fome'
- While 'fome' (hunger) is a noun, 'esfomeado' is an adjective. Learners might mistakenly try to use 'esfomeado' as a noun or confuse its usage with expressing simple hunger. Remember, 'esfomeado' is for intense hunger.
Incorrect: Tenho esfomeado.
Correct: Tenho fome.
Correct: Estou esfomeado.
- Overuse
- While 'esfomeado' is useful, constantly using it for mild hunger can sound exaggerated or even a bit dramatic. For everyday, mild hunger, 'com fome' or 'com uma leve fome' is more appropriate.
- Com fome (Hungry)
- This is the most basic and common way to say 'hungry'. It's a neutral term suitable for almost any situation. 'Esfomeado' is more intense.
- Example: 'Estou com fome.' (I am hungry.) vs. 'Estou esfomeado.' (I am starving.)
- Faminto (Famished, Starving)
- 'Faminto' is very similar to 'esfomeado' in intensity. It also implies extreme hunger. The choice between them can sometimes be regional or personal preference, but they are largely interchangeable for strong hunger.
- Example: 'Ele chegou em casa faminto.' (He arrived home famished.)
- Morrendo de fome (Dying of hunger)
- This is a more colloquial and emphatic expression, often used humorously or to exaggerate extreme hunger. It's a phrase rather than a single adjective.
- Example: 'Estou morrendo de fome, preciso comer agora!' (I'm dying of hunger, I need to eat now!)
- Com muita fome (Very hungry)
- This is a straightforward way to indicate a higher level of hunger than just 'com fome'. It's less intense than 'esfomeado' or 'faminto' but stronger than basic hunger.
- Example: 'Depois da caminhada, ficámos com muita fome.'
- Apetite voraz (Voracious appetite)
- This phrase refers to a strong desire or capacity for food, often implying a large appetite. It's more about the nature of one's appetite than a temporary state of extreme hunger, though they can overlap.
- Example: 'Ele tem um apetite voraz, sempre pede mais comida.'

نکته جالب
The root 'fome' is related to the Latin word 'fames', which also means hunger. Many Romance languages have words derived from 'fames' to express hunger, such as 'hambre' in Spanish and 'faim' in French.
راهنمای تلفظ
- Pronouncing the final 'do' as a hard 'd' sound (like in 'dog') instead of the softer 'th' sound.
- Not stressing the correct syllable, leading to an unnatural rhythm.
- Pronouncing the 'e' in 'es' too strongly, making it sound like 'ess'.
سطح دشواری
The word itself is relatively simple to understand in context. However, recognizing its nuanced usage, especially in figurative applications (e.g., 'esfomeado por conhecimento'), requires a higher level of comprehension. Understanding the grammatical agreement is also crucial for accurate reading.
Learners need to master the gender and number agreement of the adjective 'esfomeado' to use it correctly in writing. Overusing it or using it in inappropriate contexts can also be a challenge.
Pronunciation requires attention to the 'th' sound at the end and correct syllable stress. Correctly applying gender and number agreement in spontaneous speech can be difficult for beginners.
Recognizing 'esfomeado' in spoken Portuguese is generally straightforward, especially when the context clearly indicates hunger. However, distinguishing its intensity from other hunger-related terms might require practice.

'Faminto' is a very close synonym to 'esfomeado', also meaning starving or famished. The distinction is subtle and often regional or personal preference.
'Com fome' simply means 'hungry'. 'Esfomeado' implies a much more intense level of hunger, akin to being ravenous.

Neutralبهراحتی اشتباه گرفته میشود
Both relate to the need for food. 'Fome' is the noun, 'esfomeado' is the adjective describing the state of intense hunger.
'Fome' is the sensation or condition of needing food. 'Esfomeado' describes a person who is experiencing that sensation intensely. For example, 'Tenho fome' (I have hunger/I am hungry), but 'Estou esfomeado' (I am starving).
A fome dele era tão grande que ele se sentiu esfomeado.
Both are adjectives describing extreme hunger and are often used interchangeably.
While very similar, 'faminto' can sometimes carry a slightly more formal or literary tone than 'esfomeado', which is more common in everyday speech. However, for practical purposes, they are largely synonymous when describing intense hunger.
Ele estava esfomeado e faminto depois da longa jornada.
Both describe a strong physical need, but one is for food and the other for drink.
'Sedento' specifically refers to thirst (needing to drink), while 'esfomeado' refers to hunger (needing to eat). Sometimes, one might be both 'sedento' and 'esfomeado' after strenuous activity.
Após a corrida, estava tão sedento e esfomeado que bebi água e comi tudo o que encontrei.
Both suggest a strong desire for food, but 'voraz' often describes the nature of the appetite rather than just the current state of hunger.
'Esfomeado' describes the current feeling of intense hunger. 'Voraz' describes an appetite that is powerful and insatiable, often implying a tendency to eat a lot. You can be 'esfomeado' temporarily, but having a 'voraz' appetite is more of a characteristic.
Ele tinha um apetite voraz e, por isso, estava sempre esfomeado.
Both indicate a strong need for food.
'Com muita fome' is a more direct and less intense way to say 'very hungry'. 'Esfomeado' is stronger, implying a state of being 'starving' or 'famished'. It's a matter of degree.
Estou com muita fome' is less intense than 'Estou esfomeado'.

نحوه استفاده
Common, especially in spoken Portuguese.
-
Incorrect gender/number agreement.
→
Eu estou esfomeado. / Ela está esfomeada. / Nós estamos esfomeados.
Forgetting to match the adjective's ending (-o, -a, -os, -as) to the subject is a very common error for learners. Always check the gender and number of the noun or pronoun.
-
Using 'esfomeado' for mild hunger.
→
Estou com fome.
'Esfomeado' signifies extreme hunger. Using it for a mild feeling of hunger sounds unnatural and exaggerated. Reserve it for when you feel truly ravenous.
-
Confusing 'esfomeado' (adjective) with 'fome' (noun).
→
Tenho fome. / Estou esfomeado.
You 'have hunger' ('tenho fome'), but you 'are starving' ('estou esfomeado'). They are not interchangeable in sentence structure.
-
Mispronouncing the final 'do'.
→
esfomeado (with a soft 'th' sound for 'd')
The final 'd' in 'esfomeado' is often pronounced like the 'th' in 'the' (a voiced dental fricative), not like the hard 'd' in 'dog'. This is a common pronunciation challenge.
-
Using 'esfomeado' as a verb.
→
Ele esfomeou. (less common, means 'he starved')
'Esfomeado' is primarily an adjective. While the verb 'esfomear' exists, it's less common than using 'estar esfomeado' to describe the state of being hungry.
نکات
Mastering Agreement
Remember that 'esfomeado' is an adjective and must agree in gender and number with the noun or pronoun it describes. Pay close attention to the endings: -o for masculine singular, -a for feminine singular, -os for masculine plural, and -as for feminine plural. This is crucial for sounding natural.
Intensity Matters
Use 'esfomeado' when you truly feel ravenous. For milder hunger, 'com fome' is sufficient. Overusing 'esfomeado' can make your language sound overly dramatic or insincere.
The 'TH' Sound
Practice the final 'do' sound in 'esfomeado'. In many Portuguese accents, the 'd' sounds like the 'th' in 'the'. Focus on this soft 'th' sound to improve your pronunciation.
Figurative Power
Don't limit 'esfomeado' to just food. Its figurative use to describe intense desire for abstract things like success, knowledge, or attention is powerful and common in Portuguese.
Connect to 'Fome'
Link 'esfomeado' directly to the word 'fome' (hunger). Visualize someone so hungry they are 's-foaming' or extremely agitated due to lack of food. This strong association will help you recall the meaning and intensity.
Listen and Learn
Pay attention to how native speakers use 'esfomeado' in conversations, movies, and songs. Notice the situations and the tone they use to convey intense hunger or strong desire.
Synonym Spectrum
Understand that 'esfomeado' is at the more intense end of the hunger spectrum, above 'com fome' and similar to 'faminto'. 'Morrendo de fome' is a more colloquial, often exaggerated, expression.
Sentence Building
Create your own sentences using 'esfomeado' in different contexts – literal hunger, figurative desire, and with various subjects to practice agreement. Write them down and say them aloud.
Cultural Significance
Recognize that in Portuguese-speaking cultures, expressing strong emotions and needs, including hunger, is often done vividly. 'Esfomeado' contributes to this expressiveness.
Regular Reinforcement
Revisit the definition, examples, and usage notes for 'esfomeado' regularly. Consistent review will help embed the word and its nuances into your active vocabulary.

معنای اصلی: To be made hungry; to feel intense hunger.
Indo-European > Italic > Latin > Portugueseبافت فرهنگی
While 'esfomeado' can be used for humorous exaggeration, it's important to be mindful of its literal meaning, which refers to severe hunger.

However, in everyday conversation among friends and family, it's a common and generally accepted term.
In English, 'starving' or 'famished' are the closest equivalents to 'esfomeado'. 'Hungry' is a more general term, similar to 'com fome'.

The pronunciation is roughly /es.fo.meˈa.ðu/. The stress is on the second-to-last syllable ('A'), and the final 'do' has a soft 'th' sound similar to the 'th' in 'the', followed by an 'oo' sound.
Yes, 'faminto' is a very close synonym and often used interchangeably. 'Morrendo de fome' is a more colloquial and exaggerated expression. 'Com muita fome' means 'very hungry' but is less intense than 'esfomeado'.
In most everyday situations, they are interchangeable. 'Esfomeado' might feel slightly more common in casual, spoken Portuguese, while 'faminto' can sometimes sound a bit more formal or literary, but this distinction is not strict.
Absolutely. You can say 'O gato está esfomeado' (The cat is starving) or 'Os cães estão esfomeados' (The dogs are starving). The adjective must agree with the animal's gender and number.
The opposite of being starving is being full or satisfied. Common antonyms include 'saciado' (satiated/full) and 'cheio' (full).
No, 'esfomeado' is not inherently rude. It's a descriptive word for intense hunger. However, like any word, its usage can depend on the context and tone. Exaggerating its use humorously is common and generally not offensive.

Summary
Esfomeado' signifies a state of intense hunger, a feeling of being ravenous or starving. It's a vivid adjective that conveys a stronger sensation than simply being 'com fome' (hungry). Remember to adjust its ending to agree with the subject in gender and number (esfomeado, esfomeada, esfomeados, esfomeadas). It's commonly used after periods of not eating or after significant physical exertion.
- Esfomeado means extremely hungry or starving.
- It's a more intense word than 'com fome'.
- Remember to match gender and number: esfomeado/a/os/as.
- Use it when you feel ravenous or after strenuous activity.
Mastering Agreement
Remember that 'esfomeado' is an adjective and must agree in gender and number with the noun or pronoun it describes. Pay close attention to the endings: -o for masculine singular, -a for feminine singular, -os for masculine plural, and -as for feminine plural. This is crucial for sounding natural.
Intensity Matters
Use 'esfomeado' when you truly feel ravenous. For milder hunger, 'com fome' is sufficient. Overusing 'esfomeado' can make your language sound overly dramatic or insincere.
The 'TH' Sound
Practice the final 'do' sound in 'esfomeado'. In many Portuguese accents, the 'd' sounds like the 'th' in 'the'. Focus on this soft 'th' sound to improve your pronunciation.
Figurative Power
Don't limit 'esfomeado' to just food. Its figurative use to describe intense desire for abstract things like success, knowledge, or attention is powerful and common in Portuguese.
