How to use comer in the present

The present is regular: como, comes, come, comemos, comen. Use it for eating habits (No como carne) and for plans in the near future, which Spanish often expresses with the present: ¿Comemos juntos mañana? In many countries comer here means lunch specifically, so ¿A qué hora comes? asks when you have lunch.

Examples

  • No como carne desde hace dos años.

    I haven't eaten meat for two years.

  • ¿Comemos juntos mañana y hablamos del proyecto?

    Shall we have lunch tomorrow and talk about the project?

  • ¿A qué hora comes normalmente?

    What time do you usually have lunch?
