A 'hog' is a type of pig, especially a large one. Informally, to 'hog' something means to take or use more than your fair share.
用法与细微差别
As a noun, 'hog' refers mostly to farm animals, but can insultingly describe a person who is greedy or messy. As a verb, commonly used in everyday speech: 'Don't hog the remote!'. Much less formal than 'monopolize'. Not as affectionate as 'pig' can sometimes be.
