"Quantum" (Of The Seas) ... Makes No Sense

[F27TW]

Here's the definition for "quantum" :

 

Quantum is the Latin word for amount and, in modern understanding, means the smallest possible discrete unit of any physical property, such as energy or matter.

 

 

So how exactly does it relate to "... Of The Seas" .. ? Are they saying "Smallest possible unit of the seas"?

 

Can someone splain?

I believe they are using it in the sense that "Quantum Leap" used it - meaning a move forward that is not measurable in existing terms;)

That's what I thought too. :);)

As an adjective, it means "sudden and significant", or "being vitally important". Using it as a proper noun, they can adopt whichever meaning they choose. It doesn't have to be just the noun definition.

Neither does "Ovation of the Seas"

It just sounds "cool." Like "Quantum Mechanics." Who, other than Stephen Hawking, gets Quantum Mechanics? But it sure sounds cool.

Actually, "quantum" in Latin, is an interrogative adjective meaning "how much?" or "how great?"

Hello,

 

Yes indeed - from 16th century neutral form Latin 'quantus'.

Actually, quantum spelled backwards is "mutnauq", which is Scandanavian for "who gives a rat's behind what they call it.":p
