"We ate fish at lunch."

Translation: Nós comemos peixe no almoço.

Can someone explain when to use EM/NO-A/A? Obrigado ^^

[Faulkenham]

Past tense showed up a little unannounced...

[ivanlcourtois]

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

[Gaspard]

Yup.

[Jamesalex1]

Why do we suddenly have the past tense here?!!

[jondbaker08]

why no almoco and not na almocar?

[hriskakisk]

that's what I want to know as well

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?
