Help me with this question
All the alternatives seems right to me
Does ‘quite’ just mean very?
People seem to use ‘quite’ to mean very or pretty, whereas I personally think it has more of a sarcastic or slightly judgmental tone.
Why have the english never needed an official body to regulate their language?
If the english language doesn't have an official body that regulates the unique meaning of words like the Royal Spanish Academy, then how can english speakers understand the same meaning of a word when they speak to each other? How do you resolve the problem in official and formal language when two english speakers have different definitions for the same word? Why did the English never need to create an official body to legally regulate the meaning of the words they use, while the spanish did need to create one (the RAE)? Why are there peoples who need to create an organization that defines fixed definitions for the words in their language (the spanish people) and peoples who do not (the anglosaxon people)?

Is this actually "old-fashioned" as the Cambridge dictionary says? What would you do if you heard someone using it or read it on the web? Especially British people :)
