ワードアップ英会話 WORD UP ENGLISH CLASS | 日記 | Idioms: "hang out"

To "hang out" means to spend some time in a place, often with the nuance of doing nothing special or nothing in particular.

For example:

When I was in high school I used to hang out every day at the mall with my friends and play video games and stuff.

Or, in a phone call:

Natalie: Hello?
Leonard: Hey, it's Leonard. What are you up to today?
Natalie: Oh, not much. I'm just hanging out watching TV right now.


So, how about you? Where are your favorite places to hang out?
