About Entertaiment
In its broadest sense, entertainment may include any activity that is pleasurable, exciting or amusing, but it can also be something of a serious nature. It can be a form of ceremony, celebration, religious festival, or even satire. It can vary in scale from a personal experience, such as selecting from among the now enormous array of pre-recorded products, to banquets designed for two; to performances for thousands. Entertainment can be a powerful tool of communication and has shown the capacity for creative remix, adapting and evolving to new forms. The word comes from the Medieval Latin intertenere, with the prefix inter meaning “inside” and tenere from the Indo-European root ten.
