      Past tense showed up a little unannounced...

        "comemos" is both the present and past for "we eat"?

                  Why peixe and not peixes? In this context I believe the english indicates plural fish (otherwise it would be 'we at a fish at lunch')- does the portuguese similarly indicate plural in this context?
