an unbifurcated traditional garment worn by
men of scottish heritage, consisting of many yards of one'
s family tartan (Tartan, as opposed to 'plaid,' which is a general term used to describe patterns some-what resembling tartan, but which have not been approved by the appropriate persons it's some lord of something or other as representative of a particular clan, or recognised group affiliated with
scotland). also is a verb (to kilt), meaning 'to pleat in the manner of a kilt.' any-one referring to a kilt as a '
skirt' deserves to be severely maimed.
'my kilt provides a freedom of
movement not available to conventional pansies - there's no sticking, and no need for readjustment here!'
(used by a woman who is pleating her
skirt which, when made of the appropriate tartan, is referred-to as a 'kilted
skirt') 'I wish this material would kilt properly.'
