A unit of liquid measurement equal to one-quarter of a gallon, or about 946 milliliters in the metric system.
From Old French 'quarte,' derived from Latin 'quartus' meaning 'fourth.' It literally means 'one-fourth of a gallon.'
The old saying 'you can't fit a quart into a pint pot' is impossible—it's actually impossible because a quart is exactly twice the size of a pint, making it a perfect example of why exact measurements matter!
