I am hungry
I am starving
I can eat a horse
My stomach thinks my throat is cut
from literal meaning to non-literal meaning.sometimes you will need such skill
when you write your love letter:))

I believe that expression came from Dickens's novel
"David Copperfield "
when little coperfield was hungry to death,the old man in the inn joked with
him.little boy said that 'I can eat a horse'
