Now here we get what I think is a funny usage of UK English...

Do you 'mericans (to include all the races and nationalities who inhabit North America where this website is based) have dinner at lunch-time and tea at dinner time? Or is it always lunch in the middle of the day and dinner or supper at the end of the day?

Merlin I bet you have dinner and tea don't ya? I do at home but with Un-Mrs.I we have lunch and dinner.

How about you other Brits here too?
This one is a funny disagreement between my dad and myself. He calls the three meals breakfast-dinner-supper.
I USED to call it that until I went into the Army and was "retrained" to call it breakfast-lunch-dinner...and you can have tea with any meal you want. I usually drink iced tea (no sweetner) unless I'm sick then it's hot tea with honey.
