Top answer

If someone proposes something to you which you don't like or don't wish to approve, instead of simply saying "No," you can offer a counter proposal which you feel may be acceptable to the other party. It works in the same way as a counter offer. Both expressions are more common as nouns than as verbs, but I hear both.
