English term or phrase: Leisure
Newport Leisure Concession Card is free of charge and entitles holders to concessionary rates when using leisure facilities operated by Newport City Council. You can apply for a Concession Card if you are a Newport resident.

I am trying to find out a possible term for 'Leisure'.

Anybody coming to help?

It was really difficult to chose between Ashar and Attiya. Based on the context of the complete file, I think Ashar's answer would be a good equivalent. Needlees to say, Attiya has presented an artistic meaning, so special thanks to her. Alas! there is no way to award points to more than one answerer.

Tafreehi


Explanation:
Leisure means Fursat/Faraghat/Tafreeh

In this context Tafreehi would be more appropriate, as a concession card for Fursat or Faraghat does not make sense.

If literal meaning is concerned, your answer is perfect but do see that in the given context, we cannot apply literal meaning otherwise it might look awkward or machine translation. I am still looking for better options. Just think and post again.
