What is Entertaiment?

Entertaiment is often defined as anything that makes people laugh. Whether it be comedy shows, stand up comics, or other forms of entertainment, many times the goal is to make people laugh and feel good about themselves. However, there are instances where entertainment is used to achieve higher goals such as perception or highbrow growth. Entertaiment is a Latin word that comes from the prefix inter meaning inside and the suffix tenere which means to hold or stretch. Many forms of entertainment are based on social backstabbing, murders and other themes that the human brain was designed to deeply react to.
