To think it's

[Pyjamaramadrama]

Living room not lounge
Breakfast-lunch-dinner not breakfast-dinner-tea
Pudding not dessert

How do you say it and which ones annoy you?

Definitely lounge, sitting/living room sounds posh to me! Breakfast lunch and dinner (or tea if the notion takes me) and we have pudding, which can be anything - cake, yoghurt, ice cream, fruit.

Also we say couch, hate the word sofa! Just curious, what does everyone call the kitchen work top? I say the counter but DH says that's weird but he calls the driveway a runway so he can't talk

I don't care. What I call them can change daily.

The only thing I get about it when peeps say 'summer house' when it's clearly a shed.

Breakfast, lunch, supper (although 'tea' in front of DS's friends so I don't embarrass him)
Sitting room & sofa
Pudding
Loo

I don't think I'm posh but others might disagree a bit. I remember getting the p taken out of me at primary school for writing about 'My Cycle Ride' when asked what we did in the holidays. Apparently 'bike' was where I should have pitched it

Some genuinely upsetting petit bourgeois solecisms in this thread. I'm going to have to lie down for a little.

Living room
Breakfast, dinner, tea
Don't care so long as you give me some

This is the dullest " please acknowledge how middle class I am" post I've seen for a long time.

(Yawns and rings bell for the dogs to let out).

It's a class thing
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/U_and_non-U_English

The class list is not like anything I recognise, my nan who was the most working class cockney (a proper one) used half the words on the U list, there is not a chance in hell that she upper class!

Typical.

Back yard not patio
breakfast dinner tea
lavatory
living room/ backroom / front room or 'in yonder'
wash house not utility room

The only way is Northern!

Back yard not patio

Surely a patio is something you have in a back garden/yard, not the back garden/yard itself?

Front room/house (only ever heard the second in my family though)
Breakfast -lunch (work)/dinner (home)- tea (home)/dinner (out if nicer thanks nandos)
Afters

The kitchen has worktops which are commonly referred to as "the side".

Aye. There's nothing like a good old North/South Them/Us thread.

Some people are so uptight. It's a bit of fun. I've no idea what's northern/southern, upper/lower class.

It's just a discussion I always have with dh. He calls our living room a lounge and when I ask what he wants for dinner he assumes I mean lunch.

I'm working class anyway so couldn't give a toss.

I call the kitchen tops the side too.

Lounge
Breakfast lunch dinner
Pudding

I spent my life living down south but with very northern parents!

Nancy, in the spiel under the lists it said the upper class/working class tend to use the same words - it's only the social climbing middle classes that use the more pretentious words

To be honest, I think it was also a largely north/south divide, but with the Internet and more movement between areas than in older times the language has become quite mixed for most people.

Sitting room, although living room is acceptable, especially if it's a sitting room and dining room combined.
Breakfast/lunch/ dinner or tea, depending on time of day. Usually dinner. Supper is a light meal or snack after about 8 p.m.
Dessert or pudding.
Sofa.
Napkin.

Work tops are counters here.
