what do you call your meals and where are you from?

I'm from a small town in Yorkshire, UK. We have breakfast in a morning, dinner around mid-day and tea in early evening. If we're talking to people who are not from around here, e.g. on the phone, we will say 'lunch' instead of dinner, but even in schools we are given a break at 'dinner time'.

    When I was in the U.S., it was breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    Then I moved to the UK and my first job was carework. Breakfast was the only meal that all of the staff used the same word for.

    I just gave up even trying to get it right. :-)

    again on the farm, it became breakfast, dinner, supper. after I moved away it became breakfast lunch and supper. If i bypass out for the nighttime meal, I say i go out to dinner. Strictly talking, supper is meant to be a small meal round 8 PM.

    Breakfast (morning), lunch (midday or around noon) and dinner in the evening. If you're "country" you replace the word dinner with supper.
