Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Kant established new criteria for defining scientific knowledge. For this it proposed a distinction between the different types of judgment.

According to Kant a priori is a knowledge where no information is provided based on experience, ie, a priori information is held to be true without the need for justification. On the other hand, the term "posteriori" refers to information that is true or false based on experience. That is, a posteriori refers to information that can be justified.

The phrase "I am hungry" is a statement that can be taken as true without the need for justification, so this phrase is an example of "Priori".
