"Fundamental free time"

Where did you pull this from? I can't say it seems natural to me to just have those four glyphs together, but I could be wrong.

基本(きほん)=fundamentals/foundation

お=honorific prefix for non-Sino-Japanese vocabulary in Japanese (the Sino-Japanese honorific prefix is ご as in ごかぞく ("your family") and ご主人 ("your husband").

暇 (ほま)=free time

For what it's worth, I'm near-fluent but not fluent or native.
