貪

greed; insatiable desire

Kanji 2082

Because 貪 represents greed, it’s tied to various Buddhist beliefs, including one about three poisons. The kanji is also associated with untiring zeal, so it factors into terms for an endless appetite for sex, for reading, and for food. Learn to say, “How does it help you to be so unpleasant?” “Young men are apt to fall victim to their own avarice,” and “People are insatiably curious.”
