Etymology

The word 'supper' originated from the Middle English 'sop', which meant a small piece of bread or a slice of food that was dipped into a liquid. It is derived from the Old French term 'soper', which also means to eat the evening meal. Over time, 'supper' came to denote the evening meal itself, particularly a lighter meal compared to 'dinner'. In various cultures, the specifics of supper can vary significantly, encompassing anything from a light snack to a significant multi-course meal. The shift in the meaning of supper and its timing has also evolved with societal changes and trends in dining. In modern usage, the term 'supper' can suggest an informal gathering, contrasting with more formal meals, reflecting a relaxed dining atmosphere often shared among family and friends.
