How to Say I'm Hungry in French. If you'd like to say “I'm hungry.” in French, you would say “J'ai faim.” Literally, it means, “I have hunger.” And, awkward as that may sound, it's the universal expression for letting others know you need something to eat.
In French, you use the verb avoir in order to convey hunger and thirst: J'ai faim (= I'd like to eat / I'm hungry), tu as soif (= you'd like to drink / you're thirsty).
In French they use "to have" to express hunger but not "to be". Hi Bay - the easiest way to 'get' this is that 'faim' actually means 'hunger' not 'hungry', so in French we say, in effect, "I have hunger". It's the same for thirst. Hope that helps!
