Question
If someone heard his friend counting the Omer and noticed a mistake and corrected him, is it considered that he has already counted and can no longer count with a blessing, even if he only said the number and not 'today' (is it similar to when a friend asked him and he answered, according to Shaarei Tzedek, even if he didn't say 'today', there is an opinion that he cannot count with a blessing)? And if possible, please provide a source.
Answer
Since he did not say 'today is such and such of the Omer', he has not fulfilled the obligation, and therefore he can count with a blessing.
