"Ei merg în oraș la prânz."

Translation: They go in town at noon.

[Andrzej983613]

But I still can't understand why it is prânz for noon. Should it be in translation only as at lunchtime?

[DavidRomanH]

"lunch" is the only given translation for prânz when I select the underlined word. So why is it considered wrong to translate "la prânz" as "at lunch"?

[Gene947760]

Also we would say 'to' rather than 'in'

[Stephen305160]

Where i am from, i think we would say "going into town..."

[Andrzej983613]

W
hy is it here at noon in the translation?

The given translation does not make sense. We would say, "they are going into the city at noon" (or, "at lunchtime").

[DaithiWalsh]

Well, to say 'The go to town at noon' is correct, and means or implies: they go there (to town) frequently or habitually. Whereas 'they are going ....' implies: they're doing to now, soon, today, or once.
