"There is a hamburger on the plate."

Translation: 접시에 햄버거가 있어요.

Aren't the sentence positions for place (접시에) and topic/subject (햄버거) interchangeable?

"햄버거가 접시에 있어요." is now accepted. Please report if you think your answer should be accepted. Thank you. :)

Why is 접시에 햄바가가 있습니다 wrong?

[chengomango]

Can it also be "접시에는 햄버거가 있어요"?

i believe that no, "on the plate" is not the topic. i havent seen one use ~에 followed by ~은/는 before.
