Entertaiment is audience-centered commercial culture that keeps people amused, engaged, and diverted. It encompasses all forms of entertainment from a simple book or video for an individual to the production of a film, theater, or television show for thousands or millions of spectators. Entertaiment is also an important form of cultural expression in the form of ceremonies, celebrations, religious festivals, satire, and other social activities. Entertaiment can be a source of enjoyment and even happiness, but it often has a darker side as well. Click on a collocation to see more examples.
