quite

Adverb A1 – Beginner

To a fairly large degree, more than a little but not completely.

"The test was quite difficult, though not impossible."

In British English, "quite" often softens a statement ("quite good" means fairly good), but with strong adjectives like "amazing" it means "completely."
