Any old iron 2i152v

Needing some milk while staying self-catering in a beautiful apartment near Lago Maggiore, I decided to ask at a local bar if they sold any milk. Not only confusing the gender of the Italian word for milk, il latte, which is masculine, I also managed to swap the words for selling and buying, by saying: Comprate delle latte?Taking the waiter's confused look for deafness, I asked again more slowly and loudly, until he answered politely: No, grazie! Little did I realise that I had inadvertently become a seller of scrap metal, as I had been asking him if he would be interested in buying any tins! What of course I should have said was: Vendete latte?
