Think this very interesting, these differences.

....how are you?
You can still say"i am going to make dinner"i would know what you meant
It's just that"dinner" in the EVENING cannot refer to a light ,"snack" meal whereas "tea" can.
The mid day meal can be called "LUNCH" OR "DINNER" and if you are using the word "dinner " to refer to a mid day meal then it can mean a cooked meal or just sandwiches or a light snack meal.
Does this help ?
sorry if it's confusing
