What do you call it? Dinner or supper?!
Answers: I've called it dinner my whole life and personally think the word supper is overdoing it and very corny/annoying.
dinner... supper is so little house on the prarie... when i hear people say it i think they are joking .
Dinner. And I totally agree with you about the word "supper" - it irritates me like the word "ain't" - it just ain't right.
Tea!

Supper. Dinner to me is a large meal at noon
i don't know why but my family always called it supper if we were eating at home and dinner if we were going out.
Supper is actually lunch I think, Like in Europe they eat their main large dish in the afternoon, supper. Me I eat my larger meal at night, dinner.

time to eat.
I call it dinner. My grandma calls it supper, because that was what they called it when she was a kid.
Yup I Agree..Dinner Is Much Better
Dinner.
Supper, however, used to refer to an earlier meal than dinner...but has, over time, come to be used to describe the evening meal....
Dinner. Though when announcing to my 16 year old son up the stairs, I simply shout ''FOOD!''

It's supper, the french word dinner means lunch and dejeuner mean breakfirst but people use dejeuner as lunch. Kind of confusing but the real answer is Supper. The french word for the last meal of the day is Souper. See the diffrence? I know it's comfusing. Just use Souper.
I grew up in a very traditional household so it was supper. As in breakfast-lunch-supper. Somehow I just started calling it dinner and it stuck for all these years.
Dinner is the noon meal. Supper is the evening meal.
Although I think sometimes lunch is the noon meal, dinner is the evening meal, and if you have a late meal (like after the theater) some call it supper.
Bottom line, I'm having biscuits and homemade sausage gravy for supper, and probably will eat the leftovers for dinner tomorrow.
Niiiice. Thanks for the deuce!
well i call it dinner but i think supper is something completely different supper is like a snack you have right before you go to bed what does do my head in is when people call dinner TEA lol y the F*ck is it TEA tea is tea like a cup of tea .
I called it supper for 19 years, and have called it dinner for the past 8 years.
Supper wasn't designed to be interpreted as corny...it's a reference from "The Last Supper", to describe the last meal of the day. I only changed over to dinner because most people didn't know what I meant when I said supper.
I interchange both words since I can't keep them straight. I've come to accept that and not worry about it. Why can't we just have one word and stop all the confusion?!?!?! The world would be a better place... -grin-
DINNER FOR SURE....supper sounds wierd
When I lived in the North it was dinner.
I moved to the South and when I said dinner,
everybody thought I was referring to the Sunday
meal at noon!!
Now I just say supper like everybody else down here.
There is also the 'dinner bucket' which is what ya
carry your lunch in. Dinner time is noon here.
Dinner when I'm talking to Yankees and supper when I'm talking to Southerners.
Largest meal of the day is dinner regardless of time or so "they" say. Supper is a lighter, later meal. When this was primarily an agricultural economy, the largest meal was served in the middle of the day & was called dinner. At night at the end of the work day, a lighter meal was served called supper. Now if someone can explain how "lunch" came into being, we will know all of our meals!
Since I am from the South, it's supper. Sorry it's corny and annoying, but that's how things are done in the South.
Dinner for sure, supper sounds sooooo old school!!!!
It could go either way, but most people now are calling it dinner!
I call it dinner!
Both are correct, but are served at different times of the day. Dinner was a very hearty meal for farmers so they would have the energy to work until dark. They would then have Supper before going to bed.
