When you are describing someone's appearance, you generally use pretty and beautiful to describe women, girls, and babies. Beautiful is a much stronger word than pretty. The equivalent word for a man is handsome. Good-looking and attractive can be used to describe people of either sex. Pretty can also be used to modify adjectives and adverbs but is less strong than very. In this sense, pretty is informal.
当描述人的外貌时，通常用 pretty 和 beautiful 来描述妇女、女孩和婴儿。beautiful 比 pretty 语气强烈很多。描写男性的对应词是 handsome。good-looking 和 attractive 可用来描述两性。pretty也可以用来修饰形容词和副词，但是语气不如 very 强烈。表示这个意义时，pretty为非正式用语。

adv.(副词)

pretty用作副词,主要用于非正式场合的口语中,一般用作减弱语,即针对于一定标准而在程度上有所减弱,可修饰使人产生好感的词,也可修饰产生恶感的词。另一方面, pretty又可作为形容词或副词的强化语。究竟是减弱抑或强化,须根据上下文而定。

adj.(形容词)

pretty着重指女性适度的美,指娇小可爱,侧重表面的吸引力或部分的美。语气较beautiful弱,且大多用来指年轻的女性,一般不用来描写成年男性。

pretty也可以用于男女儿童,表示漂亮、活泼、可爱。

pretty用于物或动物,常含有“小巧玲珑,精致美好”的意思。

pretty还可作“出色的”解,相当于excellent或good。

pretty有时用作贬义,指“娘娘腔的男子”“不好的,不妙的”,在句中作定语。

quite所表示的程度比fairly稍重,可理解为“十分,相当”。例如:
