Pa-tay de foy grass?

So I asked my friend what she thought Pâté de Foie Gras was, and she was able to produce french and food on her own. Then she said, "Patay de foy grass," and I nearly bursted out laughing. Let's work on the pronunciation, shall we? Everyone automatically likes to pronounce é as "ay," which is right. Thé say foy instead of "fwah," and lastly, the "s" in "gras" is silent, therefore that word is pronounced "grah." There you have it folks, Pâté de Foie Gras.
