More about Gorosne

Gorosne means hungry. As with Khaste, add -am and the e melts: Gorosnam is I'm hungry. Ask a friend with Gorosne nisti?, which is aren't you hungry. You hear it before a meal, as in Gorosnam! Gorosne nisti?, with the answer and the question in one breath. It is taught in Module 5, lesson 2, in the lesson called Tired and hungry, together with Khaste, so the two feelings that start most evenings arrive together. The same ending pattern then carries over to Teshne (thirsty) and the rest of the feelings in that module.
