When I first started writing on 1st-Quiz; I also started thinking about what to call all those thousands of people who has interest in quiz and trivia and who loves to quiz in every meaning of the word. At first I thought; maybe the term “quiz lovers” is the right word!? I soon rejected that term again; mostly because I thought it created a picture of two lovers walking as silhouettes against a sunset while quizzing each other all night long.

The origin of the word “quiz” is amusing (see Quiz definitions article), and so are quizzes them selves. But why is it that millions and millions of people love to take, watch, and create quizzes? Personally, I think that knowledge and curiosity are the keywords here.

According to Wikipedia, on 6th april 2008 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quiz), a quiz is a form of game or mind sport in which the players (as individuals or in teams) attempt to answer questions correctly. Quizzes are also brief assessments used in education and similar fields to measure growth in knowledge, abilities, and/or skills.
Origin of the word QUIZ:There seems to be different opinions on the origin of the word “quiz”. It is likely, that the term just has been seen or heard from different sources at different times. Of course there is probably an element of guessing as well, since it is hard to document things like that precisely.
