    Actually I always thought "quite" was somewhere inbetween "somewhat/moderately" and "rather/very" on the scale.

    The weather is quite nice if it's like... 75% nice.

    Or something like that.

    But rather is quite like quite. Very is quite different.

    This makes the name of the show "Quite Interesting" quite interesting.

    This makes me wonder what other things we Americans have been saying wrong.

    Like, "you Americans are okay."

    Does okay mean terrible and subhuman?
