"You ate the oranges" should work too.

I agree.

Are you guys sure खाये is the right orthography? खाए is what I have been taught and it is written as it is pronounced.

It's both correct.

But written "as it is spoken" would make it less confusing, no?

When you speak the य is actually pronounced, even when not written. You don't say "khaa-ee" but "khaayee".

Well, I've only heard and been taught खाए from teachers and friends. Are you sure you do say the य?

संतरे (Oranges) should be pronounced as संत्रे (Sun-tre) a fast one.

You have eaten oranges is also a correct translation.
