One of the many compensating charms of the often infuriating English language is the ease with which speakers and writers may exercise creativity and inventiveness. One of its most inventive components is the portmanteau word — one formed by combining two words into a single (and often deprecating and/or ironically humorous) term that denotes a new concept.
✔️BRUNCH
📚Meaning- a meal that is eaten after breakfast but before lunch. Brunch is a combination of breakfast and lunch eaten usually during the late morning to early afternoon, generally served from 11am up to 3pm, and regularly has some form of alcoholic drink (most usually champagne or a cocktail) served with it. The word is a portmanteau of breakfast and lunch.
〰🦋〰
〰🌸 ‘My final meal in Melbourne was a lovely brunch at the Comfortable Chair on Lygon Street.'
〰🌸’We send them candy and flowers and take them out for brunch, lunch or dinner.’
