Will someone from England explain what "having tea" means? Tea here is simply a drink and not a meal.

What is "tea"?
Empty is pure, starving is the cure.
The stomach is a muscle, and like all muscles, it needs rest.

Ah yes. We call it dinner here, though some areas of the U.S. eat it eariler in the evening and call it supper. In the U.S. tea has only one meaning, "a cup of tea," a drink.

Here in the us, Tea is a drink.
I haven't heard anyone here call tea dinner or breakfast or whatever.
