Entertaiment is a leisure activity or a form of recreation that provides pleasure, diversion or amusement. It can take the form of public entertainment, such as a theater show, concert or movie, or it can be private, like a game of cards or a children’s play. It can also be a hobby or skill, such as cooking or sports, which develop into professional activities and then become entertainment for a wider audience. The etymology of the word is interesting, as it implies ‘inside’ or ‘between’. It is sometimes compared to work, which may be considered an unpleasant or even painful occupation.
