Logic Clinic_1_A It is an answer to "Logic Clinic_1.(http://www.italki.com/entry/588151 Professor Fujita complained about the people who stressed cleanness too much. However, pointing out the professor's saying, "The urine just dropped is clean", the author said Dr. Fujita also thought on the respect of cleanness.(Do you agree with the author's assertion?) Dr. Fujita's saying, "The urine just dropped is clean" is a counter option against a statement, "the urine scattered around and remained is dirty." But he only mentioned germs. Let's suppose someone pour coffee on your clothes. Can you say, "It's O.K. The coffee does not have any germs"? I translated a Japanese book adding my comments. Would you correct my English?

I can see your reasoning. When he says "clean", perhaps he means it is directly from the source without other outside influences adding to it. So in that case, it is a clean sample.

I wrote some questions to Maia here for my convenience.

(Q1) My first question is related to the following sentence.

However, pointing out the professor's saying, "......", the author also agreed with Dr. Fujita thoughts in respect of cleanliness.

I want to express as follows: the author also pointed out that Dr. Fujita thought in respect of cleanliness.

The author does not agree but just pointed out. May I write as follows?

However, quoting the professor's saying, "......", the author pointed out Dr. Fujita thought in respect of cleanliness.

(Q2) The second question is related to the following sentence.

Dr. Fujita's saying, "The urine just dropped is clean" is a counter opinion against the statement, "the urine scattered around and remaining is dirty."

You suggested a word, "counterintuitive". How can I use it in the sentence?

(Q3) The third question is related to the following sentence.

I translated a Japanese book adding to my comments.

The main of my essay was a translation, and I added some comments. Can I use the above expression?
