"Er liebt seine Hüte."

Translation: He loves his hats.

I realise i shiuld know this by niw but ... Is the sein_ masculine because of him or masculine hats? (I do know the -e ending is for plural hats.)

[mizinamo]

Is the sein_ masculine because of him

That is correct.

seine Hüte = his hats (they belong to a male, or to a masculine noun) / its hats (they belong to a neuter noun)

ihre Hüte = her hats (they belong to a female, or to a feminine noun)

[makalala1]

Is she really saying "Hüte"??

[BaconChomper]

Fast female version sounded odd to me. Male version is normal. I thought it sounded like Hemde (which is not a word). Slow version is fine. Audio glitch.

Does this mean "He loves hats!" or "He has hats and he loves them!"? Because the English translation can mean both, like "I know my history" or "You sure like your ice tea!"

[mizinamo]

Does this mean "He loves hats!" or "He has hats and he loves them!"?

In German: only the second one.
