Hi,
According to the dictionary it also mean ''entertainment'' but I rarely see this word being used like this. Do natives actually use it in that way, please?
Thanks.
thanks,
so, how would a native usually say that sentence, please?
thanks.
As it is in your first post.
"Entertainment" does not imply the distracting aspect, so if you say "Fishing is his chief entertainment" you are merely saying that it is what he likes to do in his spare time.
