Shall I put the kettle on then?
Fancy a cuppa
It wasn't until relatively recently that I learned that the British often use "tea" as the word for their midday meal.
As in, "what are you cooking for tea today?"
Weird
Tea is not the midday meal, it's the evening meal. Usually the largest meal of the day on a work day evening.
Depends on where you live...
Up north tea/supper is also another word for dinner
