Hello Shana! I hope that this helps you
Both unsatisfied and dissatisfied can refer to a lack of satisfaction. One key difference is that unsatisfied can be used of human and nonhuman things, while dissatisfied is primarily only used in reference to people.

Hello Shana!
To be dissatisfied is to be displeased or unhappy with something. For example, if a meal is filling but tastes bad, you might say it is “dissatisfying.”
To be unsatisfied is to feel unfulfilled by something. For instance, if a meal tastes great but you are still hungry afterwards, it was “unsatisfying.”

To be dissatisfied (dis- giving the opposite meaning) you are displeased or unhappy with something, so it's a very human description.
If you're unsatisfied (un - meaning not), you are unfulfilled by something.

Hi Shana, both dissatisfy and unsatisfy mean a lack of satisfaction. "Dissatisfy" is used both with persons and things, while unsatisfy is used mainly with people.
