Hey there! So, when we say someone is "empty-bellied," we mean that they are really hungry. It's like when your belly feels all hollow and rumbling because you haven't eaten for a while. You know that feeling when you're waiting for lunch or dinner and your stomach starts growling? Well, that's being empty-bellied.

Now, there's another meaning to "empty-bellied" that's a bit more serious. It can also describe someone who doesn't have enough food to eat regularly, like being really hungry because there's not enough food around. It's like when you open the fridge and there's almost nothing in there, and you're left feeling empty-bellied because there's not much to eat.

So, when we talk about someone being "empty-bellied," we're talking about feeling super hungry or not having enough food to eat. It's not a fun feeling at all, and we always want to make sure that everyone has enough to eat so they don't feel empty-bellied.
