When is second morning-meal??
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

In Hebrew it's much simpler. We have morning-meal, noon-meal and evening-meal, just combining the words for "morning", "noon", "evening" and "meal".
I've always thought the word breakfast has a certain poetry to it that the other meals lack.

Oh, come on -- "brunch" is a beautiful word!

So "supper" is just like "lunch" in terms of a-meal-eaten-on-a-certain-time, and "dinner" can replace either when it specifies the large meal of the day?
Yep! And, to quote the immortal Snoopy:
It's suppertime!
Oh, yes, it's suppertime!
And when suppertime comes
Can supper be far away?

What is even happening?
Bruch is a fun portmwhateveryacallit, but breakfast is one of our more poetic words for ordinary tasks.
Lee,
Insent. Also, you'll see I cc'd someone. That's just me I cc'd. I meant to note it in the body of the email, so you'd have my more reliable address.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Me too. It means something, rather that just being a label.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh, come on -- "brunch" is a beautiful word!
No! Brunch implies one less meal!

Oh, indeed. I would never slight Teh Brunch. But that's a different sort of thing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Brunch implies one less meal!
But what a lovely meal!
Though it's become lazy. Or maybe it's just that I can never do brunch before noon these days.

"Supper" does mean something--it's not its fault that we don't use "to sup" instead of "to eat" anymore.
