Entertaiment
An activity that provides recreation, amusement, or distraction. It may take the form of movies, concerts, social activities, or games. It can be a temporary escape from one’s routine or mundane reality or a way to participate in something enjoyable with friends. It may also provide an aesthetic effect, though this is not always the primary intention. The word entertainment is derived from the medieval Latin intertenere, from the prefix inter meaning “inside” and the suffix tenere, from the Indo-European root ten, which means to hold.
