Dinner vs. Supper

Pensive Monkey · 07-17-2009, 11:45 AM

Do you use the word "supper" at all?

And if so, for which meal? And which meal is dinner?

We use dinner and supper interchangeably. In our house, we generally say dinner. But my grandparents say dinner instead of lunch, usually.

And what do you all say?

(This question was inspired by my musings about what would be for dinner this evening. I hate planning dinner, so I'm just prolonging my pain by thinking of stupid things to talk about. Thanks for indulging me.)
