I have already eaten lunch.
Ya he almorzado.
Q -- 1 Is this one of the ways to use "ya" properly?
Q -- 2 Could the sentence also be written as ¨Ya he comido.¨? I don´t think so because there is no indication that it is lunch, just that I have eaten?

Yes, ya plus preterite or present perfect is usually already.
Ya he comido is almost the same, but he almorzado specifcally refers to lunch, just as you suggest.

Gracias, Jeremias. I am beginning to get a grasp of ¨el pretérito perfecto¨. I have a couple more questions, so I´ll post hem in another thread. - bandit51jd, Dec 24, 2011
