Entertaiment — the clown at a kid’s birthday party, a Broadway show, a stadium rock concert, your friends fighting over the last potato chip — is anything that provides amusement or enjoyment. It usually involves a performance, but may include something as simple as watching a cat play with a toy mouse or eating a meal at a restaurant. From the French entretenir, meaning hold together or support. Click on a collocation to see more examples.
