Translations:Dinner Gatherings/5/en

| Understanding=A dinner gathering is generally understood as a hosted meal with a defined guest list, a defined start, and a shared table. The scale varies widely. Some are two or three people in a small kitchen; others are ten or twelve around a borrowed table with chairs gathered from several rooms. What tends to stay constant is that someone has taken responsibility for the evening, and that guests are expected to remain for its duration rather than pass through.
