What is Entertaiment?

Entertaiment is any activity or experience that gives enjoyment, amusement, or pleasure. The word is from the Latin intertenere, from the prefix inter meaning “inside” and the suffix tenere, from the Indo-European root ten, meaning “stretch.” Entertaiment has taken on a wide variety of forms in the many cultures of the world. It can be anything from watching a comedy show to attending a rock concert. The familiar and enduring forms of entertainment have demonstrated an astonishing ability to cross media and remain fresh and new over time.
