Porcine slang is quite versatile in English!

Pig: someone unkempt or otherwise undesirable.

Pig: an officer of the law.

Hog: to keep all or most of something to oneself.

Hog: a motorcycle, specifically a Harley Davidson or Indian Motorcycles style bike, rather than a sport-bike

Hog: I'm jorkin it right now, and by it, let's just say...

Swine: a relatively outdated generic insult (ex "you uncultured swine")

Pig-out: to engage in excess, to act as a glutton.
