    That depends completely on who I am speaking to. If the person has said "kilts" and that is the term the person is comfortable with, I will use that. If I am getting the impression that a person would prefer the term "the kilt," then I will do my best to use that term.

    I'll point out that I speak American English, so there's an ify-ness to it. I'll correct them if they want me to call it a "skilt" though.

    Now that I look at it again, I'm not so sure that "I like to wear the kilt" is a plural form of kilt...

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
