What time do you eat dinner at?

I'm grew up used to doing it anytime between 7:30 and 8:30ish. Nowadays it's a lot earlier usually, my roomies are used to doing it at 6:00 to 6:30ish.

How soon after lunch do you eat dinner? Lunch for me is usually a 1:00 to 2:00 deal so maybe that's why, but even when earlier, if alone, I wait until around 8:00 or so.

Where did you learn English at?



My work schedule varies so much. Sometimes it is at 5:00 with the family, some nights later. Last night I ate at almost 10:30 p.m. just as Redskins Nation was coming on after a long day/night at work.

You should have asked "What time do you eat dinner". Whats the "at" for.

We eat around 6:30 but on nights like tonight when I have a late appointment dinner is either fix your own or a plate is waiting for me. On the weekends we usually eat after we but our daughter down around 8:30 and if we are getting drunk it could be 9:30.

You guys got me, but the whole not ending a sentence with a preposition is not actually a rule at all.

Yes it is.

Proper phrasing is "At what time do you eat dinner?" But who TF cares.

I've got kids, so about 6pm. Even when I didn't though, I would always go nuts if I didn't eat by 7pm. My parents liked to serve at 8pm on weekends, that was a major source of angst in the house. My brothers and I would get famished by 7. But as they say, Golden Rule: he who has the gold makes the rules. And my dad had the gold!

It's a rule for Latin that does not carry over well to the English language. Many experts have said that it's a dead rule. ha ha ha..

How about this genius line?

"I'm grew up used to doing it anytime between 7:30 and 8:30ish"

That's great you guys can eat dinner at 5:30. I'm not even home until about 7:30. Dinner's usually between 8 and 9.

Yeah, I probably also stay up a bit later than some. I'm trying to work on not eating later on but snacking gets me. If I'm up till 1 or 2 I'm getting hungry after a 6pm dinner.

I haven't had much luck with any of those Fiber One products. They blast right through me, literally. And they give me some bad cramps too.

I'm guessing taking in 50% of your daily fiber in one shot (or whatever crazy % it is) isn't always the best thing.

I dont't have issue with it. A bowl has 35% of daily fiber (probably 20% for me). I'm eating brown rice or whole grain wheat pasta and some chicken for dinner. That combo does wonders for my BM.

Are you drinking protin shakes too? Some food with it gives me the runs.
