would it be a problem to place 了 after the object in this sentence? is it more/less natural? cause it was rejected

Would be interesting to know on the question, even if not now accepted

Why 吃 goes before 完?

[Artm4s]

"wán" always goes after the verb.

Are both 完 and 了 needed? What would it mean to use only 完?

[CinnamonTe1]

吃完 - finishing dessert
吃完了 - finished dessert

Why not 我们已经吃了甜点。

What does 完 do here?

[Matt322653]

完 means "finished."

[George792719]

I think it would be perfectly OK to just use just 吃了. Especially if the 甜点 follows the 了. I guess the 完 only enforces the point more.

You can actually omit it and still get it right (10/17/2020)

What's wrong with 我們已經吃甜點完了???

[Gabrielle145359]

The resultative complement 完 needs to go right after the verb 吃.

[StephanusG1]

The English should be 'we have already finished…' in the absence of any time marker.
