The word entertainment has become so associated with fun that it is often assumed to be purely playful, even though it can take many forms. It can be a simple private experience, such as choosing what to watch from an enormous array of pre-recorded products; it can be a banquet for two; it can involve thousands of people in a performance. It can also have a serious purpose, as in a ceremony or religious festival or satire. Click on a collocation to see more examples of the word.
