- spend one's time idle, do nothing
- for an item not to be in use, be spare or idle
Usage notes
[edit]Unlike "play" in English, this term is applied to both children and adults. (This leads to usage errors such as "I enjoy playing with my girlfriend on weekends.") It is used broadly for any enjoyable activity such as socializing.
