We northerners have dinner ladies (God knows what you call a male dinner lady?!) and yes, we'd ask our kids about their dinner at school.

(I believe for reasons of equality, councils do advertise for breaktime SUPERVISORS here too, but no-one actually calls them that!)

Those calling an evening meal tea its actually called high tea (around 6) whereas after tea (or low tea) is 3/4 ish

So named after the tables they were eaten at ... afternoon tea with finger food and tea (beverage) was served on low tables/picnic tables around comfy chairs whereas high tea was sitting around a table and a meal.

Hope this clarifies somewhat ...

I'd say dinner is the hot cooked meal, so either

Breakfast - dinner - tea

Breakfast - lunch - dinner.

In the week I might have a sandwich for lunch while I'm out for work then cook dinner in the evening. On a Sunday, it'd more likely be Sunday dinner around 1pm then a light meal in the evening.

"But there are dinner ladies.

There was even a program about them.

So on this basis, surely dinner time is for dinner?

never thought of it like this - it was called school dinners in primary-

but still lunch in the middle of the day and dinner for an evening meal here, tea is a drink and supper would be a pre bedtime snack

"Breakfast before 12

Lunch before 5

Dinner after 5 x

So where does brunch fit into your equation

Brunch is just a stupid word for lunch for those that are above eating breakfast

I might start calling my supper coffee and eating my dinner out of a cup

x "

isnt brunch for people who combine the 2 meals together - too late and substantial to just be breakfast, too early and probably the first meal of the day to be called lunch (and probs not a full daytime menu to choose from)

Dinner. Tea is a drink. You have tea parties in the afternoon with tea ... the drink. And you have dinner parties in the evening.

There's literally no real debate here. Saying tea is a massive mis-use of the language

Isn't it strange that we all call the same thing something different, even though we speak the same language and it's not an accent thing.

Fascinating......
