Articles about Entertaiment

In a culture that has demonstrated a seemingly endless capacity for creative remix, entertainment has evolved and can be adapted to suit a wide range of circumstances. It can be as intimate as an individual choosing a private entertainment from a vast array of available pre-recorded products; as large as a banquet for two or a party for thousands; or as serious as a ceremony, celebration, religious festival, or work of satire.

The root word derives from the Medieval Latin intertenere, where the prefix means “inside” and the suffix is related to the Indo-European root ten, meaning to stretch or extend.
