I'm thirsty
- (usually) I need something to drink (e.g., water).
- (more generally) I need something, or want something a lot.
- (euphemistic) I want an alcoholic beverage.
- (slang) Being too eager for something; desperate. Usually in reference to attention or sexual needs.
- Although this normally implies that you would like something to drink, it can be used in a more general sense to imply that you need or really want anything very important, as in "I am thirsty for money". Using "I am thirsty for a drink" is redundant (tautological) unless "drink" is being used to mean "alcoholic drink".
