amazingly enough that's exactly as in sweden, but we call them: 6-8am: breakfast: frukost /'fru-kOst/ (/u-/ is sw. {u}) 12-1pm: lunch: lunch /lu-n,s,/ (/,/ is retroflex) 6-7pm: dinner: middag /'mIda/ those who have an 8-5 job usually have 'fikarast'=20 (ca. 15 minutes) around 9.30am and 3pm as well.=20 as for the 'go=FBter' we call it 'mellanm=E5l' (middle meal)=20 and as in france generally only children have it. daniel
