Articles About Entertaiment

Entertainment is a broad category of activity, often associated with amusement and pleasure. It may range from a book, story or film to a dinner party or a performance that is designed for large audiences. It can have a serious purpose, as in a ceremony or religious festival, but also a humorous one as in a satire or political protest. Even a simple game can be entertainment, such as solving the daily crossword puzzle or a word search. It is common to abbreviate the word entertainer to entmt on fliers or in industry news publications, but it is generally not used in general writing.
