I need a word for a light meal eaten in the early evening that isn't dinner. Got anything?

No, supper doesn't count either.

Ahm. Yes, tea is somewhere between 1630 and 1730. In Finnish we have the very usable word "iltapala", which denotes a small meal in the evening. (Small, of course, being a relative term.) The only way I can translate this is "evening repast", which, unfortunately, does not address the quantity offered.
