Is the ending different for plural but not includinf "the"? Like to say eating apples and fruits or is it translated either way?

The "-ne" postfix makes a plural noun definite, so: "the apples" = "æblerne", "apples" = "æbler".

The ending of a Danish word affects it's pluralization. For example: Æble = Apple Æbler = Apples Æblet = The apple Æblerne = The apples.

Shouldn't the translation be "He eats the apples and the fruitS"? Frugt - fruit frugter - fruits frugterne - the fruits

In English, "fruit" can be singular or plural. "Fruits" is not incorrect, but is much less commonly used.
