Usage notes

 * Being an adjective in its most basic function, quantus was then used substantively as quantum (with genitive) to mean "as much of...as"; as quantī (pretiī) to mean "how high (a price)", "as high (a price) as", "how dear", "as dear as"; adverbially as quantum to mean "as much as" (cf. ); as quantō to mean "by how much", "by as much as". For all these tantus has its coordinate functions.
