Going back a few posts …… Mrrzy - But I've run into interesting things with British versus American English. Apparently "quite" means "slightly" in British and "very" in American in a sentence like They were quite amused. Very different interpretations! Not as simple as that. British 'quite' can mean both as in 'He was quite annoyed' meaning very. Marvellous language this is !
