Passer in french means "to spend" as in to pass time doing something and temps means "time" passe-temps is literally spend-time but translates properly as hobbies as others on here have said.

"Il n’était pas Français pour des prunes" is a stable expression and you will make human beings snicker by utilising bringing it into convesation. of direction, it would not must be "Français" -- it must be any nationality, or any own characteristic. It style of interprets: "He wasn't French for no longer something" and you may stick to it up by utilising describing something very commonplace or real that he did. “Il avait étudié à perfection les arcanes de la langue française.” An old commercial which i admire yet have situation in explaining to human beings is this: Du bo Du bon Dubonnet!

It's French. Literally translates as 'pastime' but we'd probably use 'hobby'.

skaters mam is the most accurate (apart from my input) because she got the english spelling "pastime" correct which we commonly call a hobby.
