Allowing to pass
Letting is the act of allowing or permitting something to happen.
In British real estate, letting refers to renting out property: a letting agent, short-term lettings.
The word appears in legal phrases like letting of blood (bloodletting) and in expressions about release: letting go, letting off steam.
