DAILY MEALS

Standard meals eaten on a daily basis have different names depend­ing on the time of day or the importance of the meal:

Àíãëèéñêèé ÿçûê äëÿ òóðáèçíåñà è ñåðâèñà

Breakfast — an evening meal. Lunch — a midday meal.

Brunch — is usually eaten within an hour or two after a person

wakes up in the morning. Tea — a late-morning meal, usually larger than a breakfast

and usually replacing both breakfast and lunch. Dunch — a mid-afternoon meal consisting of light food with tea.

In parts of the UK, Australia and New Zealand, it may refer to the evening meal (dinner). Supper — can be at any time of the afternoon or evening and

denotes the main meal of the day; sometimes it is at lunchtime and sometimes at suppertime. Dinner — a mid-afternoon meal, usually replacing both lunch

and dinner as the main, or even only, meal of the day.
