Since I failed to give the full sentence, which Tim has found, it is hardly surprising that some difficulty was encountered in answering this question. I didn't realise that the fighting was with the skirt. Thanks particularly to Tim for his lucid grammatical analysis. This is the sort of answer that is the model for my understanding of Turkish language & structure - quite complex to a beginner!
