Hi,
In the book Business Goals (Cambridge) they say you should use the adverbs quite/fairly before an adjective to weaken it. Nevertheless, in the OALD, it says quite means "to the greatest possible degree". I believe I could use it interchangeably with very. -> I'm quite/very happy today.
Is the book wrong?
Thanks.
