How do you say this in English (US)? 今日、コンビニでガムを 3 個買います。
Can I say, "Today, I’m going to buy three pieces of (chewing) gum at the convenience store."? Does this sound natural? Or, should I say "three (chewing) gums"? This Japanese sentence simply means that the speaker is going to a convenience store and buy three chewing gum products there. How would you say this in simple English?
