Commonly suggest, very hungry, such feeding (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

intravenous

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

'commonly suggest' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'hungry such feeding' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'hungry' could be 'ravenous' (similar in meaning) and 'ravenous' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'int' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'very' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for intravenous that I've seen before include "Within one type of blood vessel" , "in vessels carrying claret" , "Like emergency feeding" , "Within a vein" , "Sort of injection" .)
