moving fast or doing something in a short time

in the qualifying session he was two seconds quicker than his teammate

he was always quick to point out her faults

prompt to understand, think, or learn; intelligent

it was quick of him to spot the mistake

at a fast rate; quickly

he'll find some place where he can make money quicker

Get out, quick!

the soft tender flesh below the growing part of a fingernail or toenail

those who are living

the quick and the dead

a fast bowler
