What's the difference between phenomenon and quantum?

Phenomenon


Definition:

  • (n.) An appearance; anything visible; whatever, in matter or spirit, is apparent to, or is apprehended by, observation; as, the phenomena of heat, light, or electricity; phenomena of imagination or memory.
  • (n.) That which strikes one as strange, unusual, or unaccountable; an extraordinary or very remarkable person, thing, or occurrence; as, a musical phenomenon.

Quantum


Definition:

  • (n.) Quantity; amount.
