Repast is a noun that refers to a meal. 

The Latin word pascere (PA share ay) means ‘to feed.’ This is the origin of our word of the day which has been with us since the late Middle English period. Here’s an example:

A slice of cheese may not have made much of a repast, but I suppose it’s better than going around hungry.
