Is there another way to say thirsty besides "con sed?"

Question

Is there another way to say thirsty besides "con sed?" And why isn't it "Have dry" instead of "with dry"?

Answer 1

"Tengo sed" / "estoy sediento"

I have never heard Estar sediento... Is this correct? Thanks, always trying to learn :) - kerflop, Jan 4, 2011

Yes, it is used in different situations... even you could say "está sediento de sangre" (he wants somebody to die) - veroz, Jan 4, 2011

But is also used when you are thirsty... It´s like "I´m hungry" = Tengo hambre/Estoy hambriento - veroz, Jan 4, 2011

Answer 2

Tener sed.

Answer 3

'Con sed' would be 'with thirst'. If you want to say 'I am thirsty', 'Tengo sed' is proper.
