Comment on Word???
“Refreshments” sounds more natural.
I guess it does, but it also seems to imply a small snack or small drink rather than being able to refer to meals and drinks of any size…
I honestly don’t think of drinks when I hear someone say “victuals”, just food. Also, if the word is new to you, be warned that the C and U are silent; it sounds like vit•ulz when spoken aloud.
