hunger普通用词,指人体对于食物迫切需要的正常生理现象。
famine指因天灾人祸而引起大规模饥荒;用作引申,指严重缺乏某种物资或人力。
starvation语气比hunger强得多。指因长期缺乏食物所造成的痛苦,甚至死亡,侧重人为的灾难所致。

古英语 hunger, hungor “由于缺乏食物而引起的不适或疼痛,由于缺乏食物而引起的虚弱,渴望食欲”,还有“饥荒,某地食物短缺”,源自原始日耳曼语 *hungraz(源头还包括古弗里西亚语 hunger,古撒克逊语 hungar,古高地德语 hungar,古诺尔斯语 hungr,德语 hunger,荷兰语 honger,哥特语 huhrus),可能源自 PIE 词根 *kenk-(2)“饥渴受苦”(源头还包括梵语 kakate “口渴”; 立陶宛语 kanka “疼痛,痛苦; 折磨,煎熬”; 希腊语 kagkanos “干燥”, polykagkes “干燥”)。从公元1200年开始,“强烈或渴望的愿望”(最初是精神上的)。Hunger strike 自1885年开始出现; 最早的参考文献是关于俄罗斯囚犯的。
