Entertaiment
The clown at your kid’s birthday party, the Broadway show, your friends fighting over the last potato chip-all of these are forms of entertainment. From Old French entretenement, related to hospitality and the act of entertaining guests. Today, we mostly use the word to mean amusement or distraction. Click on a collocation to see more examples.
Entertaiment is curated by Jeremy Morrison, Senior Collections Manager. The collection includes works from the library’s special collections and rare book room.
