意味
To eat the midday meal.
文化的背景
The 'Mittagspause' is legally protected. Most employees have 30-60 minutes to eat, and it is culturally frowned upon to work through it. In Austria, lunch is often called 'Mittagessen' or 'Jause' (if it's a smaller snack), but 'zu Mittag essen' remains the standard verb phrase. The Swiss 'Mittagessen' is very punctual, often starting exactly at 12:00. It is a time for family or team bonding.
The 'Mahlzeit' Rule
If you see someone eating lunch, just say 'Mahlzeit!' instead of 'Guten Appetit' in an office setting.
Capitalization
Always capitalize 'Mittag' because it is a noun, even though it's part of this verbal phrase.
