Entertaiment is an activity that satisfies human desire for leisure and pleasure. It includes activities such as art, music, dance, theatre, games and sports. These activities are usually perceived as entertaining, but they may also be seen as a way to achieve perception and highbrow growth.
The word entertainment comes from the Latin intertenere, meaning “to hold inside.” Its Indo-European root is ten, which means to stretch or extend.
According to Bates and Ferri (2010), entertainment is an objectively understood activity that encompasses communication between text and audience from an external stimulus, offers pleasure, requires an audience and occurs in a passive form.
