1. supper / dinner / banquet — An evening meal, dinner, or feast, ranging from a regular supper to a formal banquet or celebratory feast (including the Last Supper and the marriage supper of the Lamb). All three clusters represent the same basic meal concept, differing only in grammatical number and case. Spanish consistently uses 'cena/cenas' (dinner/dinners); Hindi uses 'भोज/रात्रि-भोज/भोजों' (bhoj/ratri-bhoj/bhojon, feast/evening feast/feasts); Arabic uses 'عشاء/ولائم/عشاءات' (asha'/wala'im, dinner/banquets); Korean uses '만찬/잔치/연회' (manchan/janchi/yeonhoe, dinner/feast/banquet); Swahili uses 'karamu/chakula cha jioni' (feast/evening food). The singular-plural and case variations do not constitute distinct senses. 16×
