英语supper和dinner区别是什么？

supper专指晚饭、晚餐会，也可以指宵夜；dinner指正餐，多用于晚餐，也可用为宴会、主餐、筵席、款待等。

例句：

（2）The remains of the supper were taken away.晚餐吃剩的东西被收去了。

dinner和supper常见错误：

1、dinner：

我们邀请他来吃饭好吗?

错误 Shall we ask him to the dinner?

正确 Shall we ask him to dinner?

分析： to dinner是固定用法,不能加定冠词the。像这样的短语还有at dinner, before dinner, after dinner等。

2、supper：

昨天我吃了一顿很棒的晚饭。

错误 I had wonderful supper yesterday.

正确 I had a wonderful supper yesterday.

分析 supper作“晚饭”解泛指一顿饭的名称时,前面通常不加冠词; 但当有定语修饰时,前面通常加不定冠词a。
