pleasure
Entertainment and recreation imply thought and mental occupation, tho in an agreeable, refreshing way; they are therefore words of a high order. Entertainment, apart from its special senses of a public performance or a social party, and predominantly even there, is used of somewhat mirthful mental delight; recreation may, and usually does, combine the mental with the physical. Amusement and pastime are nearly equivalent, the latter probably the lighter word; many slight things may be pastimes which we should hardly dignify by the name of amusements. Sports are almost wholly on the physical plane, tho involving a certain grade of mental action; fox-hunting, horse-racing, and baseball are sports. Certain sports may afford entertainment or recreation to certain persons, according to their individual tastes; but entertainment and recreation are capable of a meaning so high as never to be approached by any meaning of sport. Cheer may be very quiet, as the cheer of a bright fire to an aged traveler; merriment is with liveliness and laughter; fun and frolic are apt to be boisterous. Amusement is a form of enjoyment, but enjoyment may be too keen to be called amusement. Compare synonyms for ENTERTAIN.
Synonyms:
amusement, cheer, delight, diversion, enjoyment, entertainment, frolic, fun, merriment, pastime, recreation, sportAntonyms:
ennui, fatigue, labor, lassitude, toil, weariness, work

Удовольствие описывает широкий класс психических состояний, которые люди и другие животные испытывают как позитивные, приятные или заслуживающие внимания. Он включает в себя более конкретные психические состояния, такие как счастье, развлечение, наслаждение, экстаз и эйфория. В психологии принцип удовольствия описывает удовольствие как механизм положительной обратной связи, мотивируя организм воссоздать в будущем ситуацию, которую он только что нашел приятным. Согласно этой теории, организмы также мотивированы, чтобы избежать ситуаций, вызвавших боль в прошлом. Опыт удовольствия субъективен, и разные люди будут испытывать разные виды и удовольствие в той же ситуации. Многие приятные переживания связаны с удовлетворением основных биологических приемов, таких как еда, физические упражнения, секс или дефекация. Другие приятные переживания связаны с социальным опытом и социальными факторами, такими как опыт достижения, признания и обслуживания. Удовлетворение культурных артефактов и занятий, таких как искусство, музыка и литература, часто радует. Pleasure describes the broad class of mental states that humans and other animals experience as positive, enjoyable, or worth seeking. It includes more specific mental states such as happiness, entertainment, enjoyment, ecstasy, and euphoria. In psychology, the pleasure principle describes pleasure as a positive feedback mechanism, motivating the organism to recreate in the future the situation which it has just found pleasurable. According to this theory, organisms are similarly motivated to avoid situations that have caused pain in the past. The experience of pleasure is subjective and different individuals will experience different kinds and amounts of pleasure in the same situation. Many pleasurable experiences are associated with satisfying basic biological drives, such as eating, exercise, sex or defecation. Other pleasurable experiences are associated with social experiences and social drives, such as the experiences of accomplishment, recognition, and service. The appreciation of cultural artifacts and activities such as art, music, and literature is often pleasurable.

How to use «Pleasure» in context?
What does pleasure mean to you? Pleasure is subjective, so what pleases one person may not please another. Conventionally, we think of pleasure as being a feeling of excitement, happiness, or satisfaction. But what do these things actually feel like to us?
Different emotions and body sensations are often associated with different types of pleasure. When we feel sexual pleasure, for example, our nerve endings in our genitals may become stimulated, causing feelings of excitement and pleasure. Other types of pleasure can be experienced through the senses of taste, touch, smell, and sound.
Pleasure can be found in all aspects of our lives.
