Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Quiz"

A: Sometimes a pub will have a quiz game, where people can compete to answer questions about history or culture or popular songs or celebrities [any theme that the quiz is about]. If they answer enough questions correctly, then they might win the prize at the end of the night. It is just for fun. So these are called "quiz night" [the night of the week that they play this quiz game]. Or "pub quiz" [when a pub does this quiz game so that people can play it].

"quiz" is another name for "test" or for asking a question [quizzing someone]. So a "quiz question" is just a question that is asked as part of a quiz (or test).
