If I ordered a fish supper at 1pm, would they mock me? Probably, but would still take your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I'm forgetting the evolution of language. Days of yore - dinner money, dinner ladies and dinner at midday. Nowadays - lunch money, mid day assistants and lunch at midday.

forfarton Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Lunch is only between 12 and 2 pm.Dinner can be the same as lunch, but only if you're at school or work or it is Christmas. Otherwise it's between 6 and 7pm.Tea can be the same as the 6-7 definition of dinner, or can just be an afternoon snack of tea and biscuits. If it's the latter, it should properly be called "afternoon tea".I think there is something called "high tea" too, but I've never had it. I think it's something women have. High tea is served between about 4pm and 6:30pm - main course with bread or toast, scones / pancakes, and cakes / tray bakes (funcy pieces) and tea.Middle of the day can be lunch or dinner - lunch would be something light while dinner would be more filling. Evening meal is tea if early evening or dinner if later on. Going out for dinner would imply eating later. Supper is a snack late in the evening unless referring to something with chips from a chip shop.Roll is a perfectly appropriate term for a buttery aka Aberdeen roll aka rowie. Lovely on its own or with one of butter / raspberry jam / golden syrup. However, roll could also refer to morning roll / dinner roll / crusty roll / Glasgow roll / bap / softie etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
