| Sep 1, 2020 at 3:07 | comment | added | user4688 | I'm a 64 yrs old Japanese passerby, only a simple user of the language. IMHO 2 sentences are both appropriate. I cannot understand why someone corrected the 1st. The 1st implies there are other choices like 2 apples or 3 oranges. The 2nd expresses you want to eat APPLE and "3" is only additional info. note: this is a layman's impression :-) | |

If you could explain why that would be appreciated. As of now, I really cannot understand the difference between [Number][Counter]の[Noun] and [Noun][Number][Counter]. I only see it as a stylistic choice which doesn't seem to be the case

| Aug 28, 2020 at 23:53 | comment | added | broccoli forest | Oh yes, that example (after correction) is natural. Though I'm not sure I have time to write an answer today. | |

By the third one are talking about Option C: [Number][Counter][Verb]? Usually there is no "before" context. But for a hard example something like this 2つのチーズバーガーと1つのエムポテトです。全部を食べました。(2 cheeseburgers and a medium fry. I ate it all.) was corrected to チーズバーガー四つとポテトのmサイズ一つを食べました. Just focusing on the numbers/counters correction part I don't understand why the change from [Number][Counter]の[Noun] to [Noun][Number][Counter] was needed

| Aug 28, 2020 at 18:19 | comment | added | broccoli forest | I'm curious what was the context before the sentence. If I say it out of nothing, I'll definitely choose the third one. The rest are both too unnatural to pop up without context. | |

Here we use the quote feature instead of the coding feature.
