It isn t my thing nghĩa là gì

from dictionary I can see the phrase "sth isn't your/my/etc. thing", which means it isn't something that you really enjoy or are interested in I wonder which of the following sentences is/are correct and if there are different meanings. 1.Books aren't my thing. 2.Books aren't my things. 3.Reading books isn't my thing.

thank you

Hello chris wong, and Welcome to the Forum!

1.Books aren't my thing.

Be assured that this is quite an informal expression, and one that borders on slang.

Please be sure to use capitals where appropriate, chris wong.

Hullo. My impression is that 1. and 3. are ok. while 2. perplexes me (more than) a little.

I'd treat both "reading books" and "watching sports" as an activity (singular).

"Watching sports isn't my thing."

3. Reading books aren't my thing.

Watching sports aren't my thing.

Watching TV isn't my thing.

Reading books isn't my thing. Reading is fun.
