Well to my best knowledge in anatomy, hiccups arise as a reflex to get food out of your trachea, where it was not intended to go, in order to forcefully push it into the oesophagus, where it will travel on the correct path to getting digested further.

They are solved with the help of the Heimlich's maneouvre, in which a sudden abdominal contraction forces food up and into your foodpipe. Or maybe sip on water and take some time to let the bolus travel down.

Hiccups often come after eating or drinking too much or too quickly. The stomach, which is directly below the diaphragm, becomes distended. This irritates the diaphragm and causes it to contract, as it does when we breathe in. ... eating hot then cold food, or the other way round.

@Celiaaaa No, loss of oxygen is hypoxia, or anoxia or something like that... You go blue then violet and then finally pale. No hiccups there, just strangulation noises.

I usually drink water then my hiccups go away.

Also maybe holding your breathe for couple seconds might work
