Explanation
Dinner is the main meal of the day, usually eaten in the evening, though in some cultures it can be at midday. It often includes several dishes such as vegetables, meat, rice, or bread. Families and friends usually gather for dinner, making it a time for both eating and socialising. For example, in many countries people say, âLetâs go out for dinner.â In schools or offices, workers may return home in the evening and enjoy dinner together with their families.
