Usage Note
Temporairement modifies a verb or adjective to indicate something is not permanent. It is more formal than pour l'instant ('for now') and closer in register to English 'temporarily' in official or written contexts.
Examples
"Le bureau est temporairement fermé."
Natural Translation
The office is temporarily closed.
