- Metaphysical interpretation - The meaning of excellence itself.
- Technical interpretation - A specific characteristic of an object (the qualities of ice) - i.e. its properties in the metaphysical, or in the philosophical sense aka attributes
- Philosophical interpretation - The essence of an object (the quality of ice - i.e. "iceness"). See quality (philosophy).
- Scientific interpretation - In physics, the range of frequencies over which something will characteristically respond. See quality (physics)
The first and second meanings are those most commonly used. Therefore, whereas the technical or philosophical meanings admit that Quality can be positive, negative or neutral, the overwhelming association is that Quality is something to be desired.
