Entertaiment

Entertaiment

The clown at your kid’s birthday party, the Broadway show, your friends fighting for the last potato chip–all forms of entertainment. From the French entretenir, to support or entertain, it is amusement, distraction, and a chance to unwind. We talk about theatrical entertainment as shows, visual entertainment as the stuff we like to look at, and audio entertainment as mostly music.
