Hello,


Regarding answering quiz. A few of my clients said "I broke the quiz" on my website coming from UK individuals. What does the phrase mean?

It sounds odd to me, but I guess they did well on the quiz.

It is informal, at best. I advise learners not to use it.

I'd guess they meant "broke" literally: the quiz on your site stopped working.

What clients? What quiz? Why are they telling you this?

We need more information about the situation before we know for sure what it means.
