        You are nearly right :) The formal you is said in the same way BUT it is written with a capital "il Suo" so as to indicate that it is the formal you.

            Thanks for that useful bit of information. I'd forgotten the difference between Lei and lei, and therefore suo and Suo.

              Why isn't it la sua? Or is just that il suo is masculine?

                His or her is shown as correct after several submissions.

                    Couldn' it also be "solicitor" or is that word not used anymore? Or it just doesn't mean what I thought it means?
