I think he has a new skirt for his fall collection and he is showing it at fashion week Cairo; everyone is talking about it.
Why the word تنورة is written with a tashdid on the nun (as if the pronunciation should be "tannura") but then is pronounced "taninura"?

You're correct. It is "Tannoura". What you hear here is either a glitch or an obvious mispronunciation by the voice of Duolingo.

I also wonder if the way تَنّورة is pronounced here is correct. I'd always heard it in 3 syllables: tannura, not taninura.

Ha ha ha ha. Here we go again. Seth with his skirt, and Carrie and Judy's marriage. This is brilliant.

I'm so pleased we've now moved on to "I have a...." "You have a ....." I love this course but tbh I was getting fed up of..... Carrie is a fast translator. Is your wife a professor......etc etc
I'm happy for him he's got a new skirt, because over the previous lessons he seemed to have lost his old one.
Just for making clear... i am gay and i don't wear skirts.... and i know a lot of gays who do the same. What a simple thinking of some commentators that gay men wear skirts.
so the structure of affirmative sentences is :
1) verb - 2) subject - 3) adjective referring to subject - 4) object - 5) adjective referring to object - 6) vocative particle - 7) person we are talking to .
- (6) and (7) can be in the beginning too and have to be together.
Is this more just to show that the gender of the adjective follows the gender of the noun it describes than the person who owns it? 'Cause it looks that way.
