Comer is eat
Consumir is consume
Cenar is have dinner
Devorar is devour
Almorzar is have lunch
Merendar is eat in middle of afternoon or morning
Desayunar is have breakfast.
in Argentina, in a familiar form, we usually say Morfar, It's like Comer.
I hope it serves to you

well........the word EAT has only one translation. and it is COMER
You cant translate it as almorzar, merendar, desayunar o cenar.
Each of them has the own translation
The action of COMER can be done at different times, so that is why it changes..from breakfast...lunch....dinner...etc
But if what you want is the translation for EAT the only is COMER
When you say... I'll go to have lunch....you translate it : Iré a almorzar
Same if you say...I'll go to have dinner.......Iré a cenar
COMER, ALMORZAR, CENAR, are different verbs, but they all make the same action.
Hope it helps

Sure there are.
Youy mention Merendar meeans to take a merienda
Lonchar: To take a lunch
Almorzar: To take noon meal
Cenar: To take evening meal
Desayunar: To take breakfast
Mangear = Comer (Argentina)

eat = comer, merendar, consumir
desayunar, almorzar or cenar are not translated as to eat.
but as to have breakfast, lunch or dinner, etc.

Well, besides the ones you've said, there's also ''Ingerir and alimentarse.''' I'm Colombian.
In Colombia, there are also some other sinomyns for eat, but there very colloquial and vernacular, it's just for you to know:
Tragar, embutirse/

You shouldn't call out ppl for spelling when YOU also spelled wrong.
"Your" going to fail should be "you're"
