    DefinitionShort: (figurative extension of meaning of {L:διψάω}[a] ‘to thirst,’ {D:23.39}) to have a strong desire to attain some goal, with the implication of an existing lack
    Glosses: to desire strongly
    Comments: In {S:04000500600010} the two terms διψάω and πεινάω mutually reinforce the meaning of great desire.
