    Všimnite si, že would rather sa používa, ak niekto vyjadruje svoju osobnú preferenciu. Naopak had better je skôr vyjadrenie všeobecného odporúčania, čo by mal niekto radšej urobiť vzhľadom na okolnosti. Je teda významovo blízke použitiu anglického should.

    Hoci food, meal aj dish možno po slovensky preložiť ako jedlo, nie je to to isté! Food sú potraviny všeobecne (čokoľvek čo sa dá jesť). Meal je udalosť (prijímanie potravy) aj prijímané pokrmy. Dish je potom jeden konkrétny podávaný pokrm. Napr. Supper is an evening meal., ale My favourite dish is pizza. - “Moje obľúbené jedlo je pizza.”

    Lunch lʌntʃ - obed, býva skôr ľahšie jedlo (v práci ap.). Hlavné jedlo dňa v anglicky hovoriacich krajinách je dinner ˈdɪnə - najčastejšie popoludní (po práci ap.). Pre nás to teda môže byť skorá večera. Neskorej či druhej večeri sa potom hovorí supper ˈsʌpə.
