    Good to see Duolingo also accepts his skirt as an answer here for all those guys who wear skirts... :-)

      yes! I just tried "his skirt" to see what happens, and I was really glad to see it was accepted as correct. :) and it's not just Scottish men and ballroom dance teachers. anyone can wear skirts if they want to. :)

          I immediately thought the answer was 'His skirt' then when I realized it also could've been 'her skirt' I was happy that 'His Skirt' was accepted.

            The Scottish men, or the ballroom dance teachers. I know both.

                    I didn't for one second think of a man possibly wearing the skirt, but heck I'm off to the shops!

                      When speaking formal, should not the translation be "Your skirt"?

                      I think so. But I also think I read on another discussion page that the Sua is (can be? must be?) capitalized for it to mean "formal your." If that's a rule, I'm not sure how strict it is. Maybe you know for sure by now?
