The topic title seems to imply that passing is an option.
It isn't.
p.s. good hand for transfer responses...

Thanks for answering the question in the title.
Your response implies you are unsure what to bid however.

I think my options are 4s now or make a short suit game try in h.
I will try and involve pard and make a game try in h.

Correct.
Either 3S as a random game try, or just 4S. As we aren't allowed to know the vulnerability or form of scoring, that'll do.
Vulnerable at aggregate, 4S.
Matchpoints probably a game try, but I bet my regular partner would just bid game.

It is auto 4♠ for me in any scoring method.

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

I bid 3♠. Pard bid 3N and didn't have the stones to check it and bid 4♠. Pard had Jxx AKQx Kxx Txx (2♠? really?).
RHO said he wasn't finding the club lead from Q Jxxx AQTxx AKx.

Sorry, but this is laughable 2♠.

A lot wasted in hearts. The ♦A is probably behind the king, too.
