G'day mates,

still writing my german blog (more a not so serious story than a blog) and looking for a Aboriginal-Word.

I know:
KOALA == didn't drink

Looking for:
??? == didn't eat

Maybe they dont have a word for this?

Someone a funny idea for a one word descrioption?

That well known skinny person Anna Rexia came to mind but I thought he only wanted one word.

One word is not going to happen. Two words in most languages unless referring to a specific animal/bird/insect like the Koala. In Nhanda (Western Australian Dialect);

"Malya ngalungga" - "Doesn't eat"



Cheers

Obviously "something that dosn't drink" = Is THIRSTY
and "something that dosn't eat is " = Is HUNGRY

On a sadder note - About 795 million people, or 1 in 9 of the world’s population,
go to bed hungry each night.

We are a lucky country.........
