Why do you called it a lunch?

The term "lunch" originates from the word "luncheon," which historically referred to a light meal. It evolved from the practice of having a midday meal, typically lighter than dinner, to refuel energy during the day. The concept of lunch has since become a standard part of daily routines in many cultures, serving as a break from work or activities.
