Apparently not.
Italian has "pranzare" for "to eat lunch" and "cenare" for "to eat dinner", but there is no special verb for "to eat breakfast". It's simply "fare colazione" or "mangiare colazione".

My main language is not English. There is no Italian-Turkish version of Duolingo. I have to use the Italian-English version.
I'm having trouble understanding the comments. I can not express myself.
After that, I will make my own comments in Turkish.
If you can speak Turkish, please help!
Thank you.

It shouldn't be a guessing game. Each sentence has its own answer database with multiple valid translations included. If there is a seeming inconsistency between sentences, it's either deliberate (because not all variations are valid in all contexts) or an oversight (because a small team of volunteer course contributors need to manually curate the answers for each of the hundreds of sentences individually).
If a valid, correctly spelled translation is marked wrong, you can click the little flag icon and report "My answer should be accepted."
Yes. There are several nouns in Italian that look exactly like either the 1st or 3rd person singular verb (depending on whether it's masculine or feminine).
La cena is the noun "dinner". There is also a regular -are verb cenare which means "to eat dinner" or "to dine".
io ceno
tu ceni
lui/lei cena
noi ceniamo
voi cenete
loro cenano
