A quiz is a game for the mind where the player or player’s attempt to answer questions correctly. The word quiz showed up in 1782 and was used to refer to an odd person. It is not known how it got its meaning of a test but that meaning of the word didn't appear until 1867 in the United States. Although it was used as a form of asking a question as in "He quizzed us" so maybe that’s where it stems from. Or maybe it comes from the Latin words "Qui es" meaning, "Who are you?" It really doesn't matter where the word comes from. The important thing is that we all enjoy certain types of quizzes.
