I often get confused between the words “quite” and “quiet.” Can someone explain their meanings and how to use them correctly?
 
“Quite” means to a certain or considerable degree—it emphasizes something.
Example: The movie was quite interesting.

“Quiet” means making little or no noise or calm.
Example: The library is very quiet.
