Articles about “Entertaiment”

Entertaiment is a term used to refer to activities that are entertaining. People tend to seek out entertainment to relieve boredom or because they enjoy it. The type of entertainment that is consumed is different for everyone, but it generally involves a sense of humor.

It is a common suffix in French and English (beginning with -ment) that forms nouns from verb stems, indicating the result or product of the action of the verb (as amazement, betterment, merriment). The suffix also is used with some Latin roots beginning in -er, replacing the -tion of Vulgar Latin, to form nouns denoting the sense of feeling.

It is often used in comedy to make the audience laugh, but it can be in serious movies as well.
