Supper was your everyday end of the day kind of meal.



Sunday Dinner was lunch, going out to dinner was suppertime.

Basically Dinner can be Supper or Lunch, terms are not interchangeable though.

Dinner can be eaten day, night, noon, 3pm, 7pm.

All other days of the year: breakfast-lunch-supper

For people who don't "believe" in supper......is supper even a real word to you? When would one ever eat "supper"?
