Entertaiment is a general word that means enjoyment. It can be used to describe leisure activities such as concerts, films, parties, tv shows and games. It can also refer to a method of attaining perception or highbrow growth. Entertaiment is derived from the Medieval Latin intertenere, which translates as “to hold inside.” The prefix inter means “inside,” and the suffix tenere means to hold or stretch.
Entertainment often hits on the points that the brain was evolved to deeply react to such as social backstabbing, murders and other themes that help humans understand their world. This gives a timeless feel to many entertainements and helps them endure through time.
