Let's look at some more examples.

Listen and repeat or speak along with the native speakers.

これをふたつください。(Kore o futatsu kudasai.)

これをみっつください。(Kore o mittsu kudasai.)

これをよっつください。(Kore o yottsu kudasai.)

これをひとつください。(Kore o hitotsu kudasai.)

これをひとつとこれをふたつください。(Kore o hitotsu to kore o futatsu kudasai.)

Did you notice how I added これをひとつと (kore o hitotsu to) "One of these, and..." to the beginning of the order?

これをひとつとこれをふたつください。(Kore o hitotsu to kore o futatsu kudasai.)

"One of these, and two of these, please."

When pointing out multiple items on the menu, you can join them with the particle と(to), meaning "and." と. と.

Here is the variation pattern.

これを (Kore o) {number} とこれを (to kore o){number} ください。(kudasai.)

You should be aware of this pattern, but you won't need it for this lesson.
