Entertaiment means something that affords pleasure or diversion. It is a form of recreation, often involving narrative traditions and moralism. It is also a fundamental function of novellas and has become an industry in its own right, with major players like TikTok and Triller dominating the space.
Entertainment can take many forms and satiate almost any need or desire, although it may be regarded as work or even cruelty by some. It can be a single activity for an individual such as playing a game or solving a crossword, to a banquet for two; from a theater intended for a large audience to performances suited to the internet and global broadcasting.
