在英语中,你可以用这样的话来表达老人说自己很饿:

"The old person said that they are very hungry."

"The old person said that they are starving."

这两句话的来源都是从动词"say"和形容词"hungry"或"starving"构成的。动词"say"表示"说"的意思,形容词"hungry"表示"饿"的意思,形容词"starving"也表示"饿"的意思,但是比"hungry"更加强烈。

下面是一些其他可以用来表达老人说自己很饿的英文例句,并附上中文翻译:

"The old person said that they are ravenous." (老人说自己非常饿。)
"The old person said that they are famished." (老人说自己饿得要死。)
"The old person said that they are starving to death." (老人说自己饿得要死。)

注意:这些词都可以用来描述一个人饿得很厉害,但是它们的程度有些许不同。形容词"hungry"是最常用的,"starving"略微更加强烈,"ravenous"和"famished"则更加强烈。
