Tea

[BlueFlameSkulls]

I've always wondered but what meal do the Americans have late afternoon/early evening/6pm?

Over in Northern England we call it tea but I'd imagine the yanks would confuse that with the hot beverage rather than a full meal.

I think it's commonly referred to as "supper" or "dinner."

I'm Scottish and I call it Whiskey.

[BlueFlameSkulls]

Dinner? That's an alternative name for lunch.

[ThePretenders]

I'm Ethopian and we call it hunger.

Dinner.

Or supper, or something else, I call in "Din dins" sometimes as a joke.

Yes. Yes I do.

when do you guys eat dinner? Because here in north america almost everyone has dinner around that time.

[yurgenburgen]

The correct name for it is tea. I've encountered Southerners who refer to it as "dinner", and they refer to dinner as "lunch". It comes form being conditioned by too many American programmes.

[Phantox]

I call it 'dinner'

Like most of the people in this thread

You're assuming that at some point in the day we stop eating.
