Does tea mean something other than leaf infused water where you are from?
Tea is the evening meal you'd have around 6pm-ish. Dinner is more common down south in the UK but up North, dinner is at lunch time.
Ok, so this seems intentionally confusing.
Like, what's next? Is breakfast called grave digger's biscuits?
Jokes aside, what do you call all meals in a day? Where I am from, it goes breakfast for the first meal normally in the morning, then lunch for the second meal typically mid day, and then dinner/supper for the third meal normally towards the end of the day.
You're right, it's intentional; the North of England all gathered round one day and schemed up ways to very briefly confuse some people talking about their evening meal
No, no, no... supper is a light meal that comes after dinner.
It does not for me, but I believe tea is like a snack time for some localities.
can I leave this?
you can but you won't get pudding
eats dinner...
This does sometimes work if we have a pudding, but even then it's "is that enough?" "No" (repeat 5 times).
Funnily enough there's never any trouble with him eating all his pudding!
But Daaad, I'm not hungry for main course, I'm hungry for pudding!
If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding.
“How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat your meat?”
That's not fair!
Too real. We’ve had a stomach bug tearing through our house and half a hour after chundering all over my floor I’m getting “dad, I’m hungry, what can I have to eat?”
Forgive me, child, for not immediately refilling your super soaker of a stomach.
