Etymology
The word 'quart' originated from the Old French word 'quarte', which means fourth part. It has been used in English since the 14th century to refer to a unit of volume. The term 'quart' has its roots in the Latin word 'quartus', meaning fourth. Over time, the word has evolved to represent not only a measurement but also a musical composition or a container for liquids.
