WHAT IS THE DIFFERENT?

Dear Sir, I would like to know... why certain people use this word :

"I am starving.... I want to eat now" What is the different between STARVING and HUNGRY?
"I feel exhausted" .... and what is the different with TIRED?

How about this word "HUGE" and "BIG"?

One more question, if the people would like to refer to the building (for example 50 storey)... which one is correct.... HIGH building or TALL building?

Thanks in advance...

These words are just exaggerations. They make what you are saying more dramatic.
