katniss meant that she was angry for rue's death and she will show cato in these game that she will win.

^This cannot be true, as Rue has not died at this point. She thinks this statement to herself as she sees Cato's outrage when their supplies are blown up from the mines/bombs which are reactivated by the D3 Male. Basically, they are called the Hunger Games as 'exposure can kill just as easily as a knife.' This means that as the Careers are used to being well fed, they are not used to foraging and do not know which plants are edible. Katniss then has the upper hand as the Careers have to either risk dying of poisonous food found in the arena, or starving to death. Therefore, she says it as she feels she has finally levelled the playing field, but she really now has the upper hand.

She means that the real Hunger Games are starting, not that they hadn't already started, but the real games were between her and Cato, because they were both good enough to win The Hunger Games. She means that now there are no more distractions to keep her and Cato apart so that they can see who is the best one the be victor.

What type of characterization does Katniss have in The Hunger Games?

Katniss is brave, clever, compassionate, strong (mentally and physically), and loyal. There are way more but those are just a few. I thought you meant character traits but if you are talking about static and dynamic characters, I think Katniss is a dynamic character.

Hunger games as long as you can find yourself you'll never starve?

Katniss's father once said that to her. Which basically means this:Katniss is also a type of edible flower. Katniss Everdeen was named after the edible root.When her father said this, he meant that as long as she can find her flower (which is katniss) she won't go hungry as the flower katniss is edible.Katniss Everdeen - District 12 residentkatniss - Edible flowerShe is named after a root which you can eat called katniss root.
