I made a funny . . . in French

Okay, so I know the language blogs are getting old, but hopefully there won't be many more. Trust me, I'm tired of just learning the language, but I know that it is necessary. So back to my funny . . . last night we had a book study at my apartment with some French people. We had taken their coats and put them in the back bedroom. Well a good friend of ours asked my roommate and I, if he could get his jacket. We both walked him back to the back room, and while Jen looked for his coat, I was standing at the door with him talking. Well when Jen brought the coat to the door, I stuck out my hand and said "Tu doit payer pour ta veste", which means "you must pay for your coat". He was so shocked that I had said it in French, but the best part was that him and Jen busted out laughing, because it was so funny. I'm sure you had to have been there, but trust me, it was funny!!! I've been waiting a long time to be able to make people laugh in French, finally success.
