What do you call the two main meals of the day, lunch and dinner,or dinner and supper?!
Answers: Where I am people use both terms. It seems to be most all older people call the three meals breakfast, dinner and supper. Younger and middle age use the terms breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner. Sometimes you have to ask if the "dinner" you are being invited to is noon or evening.

I use to call it dinner and supper on Sundays and lunch and supper the other days of the week.My husband calls it lunch and dinner so I have switched to that.I think it depends on what part of the counrty you are from.
So my options are:
1) Lunch and dinner
2) Dinner and supper
What's the difference between dinner and supper??
if at 12 pm lunch and dinner but if have lye in dinner and supper depends when u get up
lunch and supper... I guess I'm weird since that wasn't one of your options. Sometimes I call supper dinner, but usually it's supper. :)
I call them lunch and dinner, but traditionally (19th century or thereabouts) lunch was an upper class affair, manual workers had dinner in the middle of the day. High class urban people who got up late had supper after the opera or theatre very late. Of course if you lived in England, high tea was the meal served early in the evening, if you stayed up later, you had supper. Supper comes from the French word "souper" which indicates the last meal of the day containing... guess what... soup... but in the time of the Belle Epoque (late 19th early 20th century) a souper was often a romantic rendez vous in a secluded restaurant alcove... Actually your question is quite complicated to answer, it depends a lot on the time, the culture, and family tradition.

Um, we dont call it either of them. We say Lunch and Supper.

Breakfast. Lunch and Dinner.
In my day, I usually only get around to lunch and dinner.
I don't like breakfast very much.
But sometime I have a snack if I am REALLY hungry. :)
