Breakfast Dinner Tea Supper (optional)

My test is what you called the school staff who served your midday meal. Was it a "dinner lady" or "lunch lady"?!

[-] thehatfox@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

The school thing is a good point. We called hot meals at school dinners, that were served by dinner ladies.

But we also had packed lunches that we ate out of lunchboxes.

Do you call it Christmas Dinner or Christmas Lunch?

[-] wewbull@feddit.uk 1 points 3 days ago

You DINE at Christmas. You lunch when you grab something quick and light.
