What's the difference between Viertel, Viertelanteil, Quartal, Viertelstunde, Viertelpfund, Teil, Anteil, and Stück
Emphasizes a share that makes up one quarter; often sounds more abstract, like a share of money, ownership, or a result.
Refers not just to a quarter in general, but especially to a three-month period of the year; it is a special time-related meaning, not the general "quarter".

Advanced: broader words

Very general word for an individual piece or item; it can mean a part of a whole, but without indicating a quarter specifically.
