"Interestingly, the Chinese meal often incorrectly referred to as dim sum* is known as 饮茶/飲茶 in China. (I have given it in two forms: simplifed Chnese as used on the mainland and traditional Chinese as used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao and by much of the Chinese diaspora.) 饮茶 is pronounced \"yum cha\" in Cantonese, spoken where the meal originated, and \"yǐn chá\" in Mandarin spoken in most of the rest of China. It literally means \"drink tea\". An alternative name is \"叹茶/嘆茶\" (tan cha / tàn chá) meaning \"enjoy tea\". Chinese speakers of English normally refer to the meal as \"morning tea\".\n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\t* Dim sum (点心/點心; Cantonese: dim sum; Mandarin: diǎn xin, literally \"touch heart\") is the food served at a yum cha meal; not the meal itself.\n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\tSo here I can have morning tea, dinner at noon, afternoon tea at 4 pm and tea as my main meal in the evening. But I don't.\n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\t \n \n\n\n\t \n \n"
