An argument that someone might make against the original claim to the argument is a counterargument. It means the person is objecting to something that was previously stated.

Counterclaim is a more specific term used in a court of law. It means the defendant files a lawsuit against the plaintiff similar to the one the plaintiff filed against the defendant. It could be compared to a counterattack in the sense that the response is similar to what caused it.


However, both terms are sometimes used as synonyms.

This is from Faustus, by Christopher Marlowe. If you have choices it would be a good idea to list them. These lines are said to Mephistopheles, who is a devil pretty high up in "the organization." 

The Catholic Church was taking a bit a beating at the time (Marlowe was part of the Renaissance movement), and so he his making the comment that an old Franciscan Friar would suit a devil best. It is credited with being comic relief. 

Frankly I don't find it so, but if it is one of your answers, take it.

USPshnik [31]
<span>It is really a lot of fun. 

This sentence is not necessary in the paragraph because it does not add any helpful information about how to forage, what to look for, or other things you could get out of the experience. It just adds the detail that it's fun, which is subjective and maybe not true for everyone. </span>
