Entertaiment is a broad category that encompasses many activities that can be designed for an individual or a group. This includes entertainments that are playful and humorous, but also those that have a more serious message or purpose. Entertainment can take on a wide variety of forms, from a simple play or game for two; to a party of any size or type, with food, music, and dance; to a concert or performance intended for thousands of people. The word “entertainment” derives from the Medieval Latin intertenere, based on the Indo-European root ten. The prefix inter means “inside,” and the suffix tenere means to hold inside or maintain.
