CRAVING: meaning and examples
Good morning,
I hope everyone had a good weekend!
Today's word is:
craving (to have/get a craving for something)
It means: to have a strong, almost uncontrollable, desire to do something . It is usually used with words related to food, smoking or other habits.
Example 1
A: When you were pregnant, did you have any
cravings for strange foods?
B: Well, now that I think of it, I remember getting a
craving for Indian food when I was in my seventh month of pregnancy.
Example 2
I'm trying to quit smoking, especially now that the new tobacco law has come into effect, but I'm still going through the stage where I get strong
cravings for a cigarette.
