'Quantum' is a latin word meaning 'how much'/'how many'.
It's the word 'quantity' is derived from, I'd guess.

It's also where Quantum is derived from
as a modern word. Levels of probability.

My apologies.
I thought this was about quantum position probability densities, rather than just Latin per se.
