50 word funny story for the contest

When You Fail High School French

by June Sargent


So, someone buried his aunt near the river?

He said,  “J’ai plante ma tante pres de la rivière.”

Perhaps, he said,

“J’ai plante ma tente pres de la rivière?”

What’s the difference?

“La tante” means aunt.  “La tente” means tent.

Sorry we destroyed his tent - looking for - his aunt!
