table

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'do you hunger to get your' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'feet under it' is the wordplay.
'feet' becomes 'able' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'under' means one lot of letters go next to another (below, in a down clue).
'it' becomes ''t' (abbreviation. e.g. in 'tis).
'able' put after 't' is 'TABLE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for table that I've seen before include "Propose to a meeting" , "Feature of restaurant" , "Slab" , "Dummy (bridge); food" , "Flat surfaced piece of furniture" .)
