What Is Entertaiment?

Entertaiment:

A clown at a birthday party, a Broadway show, a stadium rock concert, or your friends fighting over the last potato chip-these are all forms of entertainment. It is the amusement or distraction that makes people happy and keeps them from thinking about their troubles. Entertainment is from the Latin intertenere, meaning “hold inside.” Its Indo-European root is ten, which means to stretch or extend. It is important to remember that what is entertaining to one group may be considered work to another.
