What's for lunch?

[Fantt]

My wife wants to know the quick and easy way to ask your co-workers, "What's for lunch?"

The only way I know how to ask with my very limited nihongo is

hirogohan wa nani o tabemasu ka?
As for lunch, what do you want to eat?

That seems too long...

Thanks! :wave:

i think that is perhaps one of the simplest ways to put it.

hirogohan wa-lunch
nani o tabemasu- what to eat

what to eat for lunch.

which leads to a greater thing. most languages rarely use ownership with apostophes or anything with apostrophes...

ohiru, nani ni shimasu?

... is a bit shorter.

hara hetta

[God]

are there any other ways?

hara hetta
Women usualy don't say that.
I recommend "onaka suita"

Wakka is that for "What's for lunch?" or "I'm hungry?"

Sorry, my Japanese is still pretty poor.

Sorry.
"onaka suita" is the simplest for "I'm hungry"

As for "What's for lunch?", I recommend "ohiru dousuru?"

The polite version of the above are respectively,
"onaka suki mashita"
"ohiru dou shimasuka?"
