Note that all four of these can be "meal" in English (and, with proper time constraints, "Breakfast", "lunch", "dinner," "supper", and "snacks" -- even further specified, as "elevensies", "tea" -- and "brunch", "lumper" and "brumper" for that matter). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ever been spanked?
