Quite和冠詞的位置分為兩種情況，下面做分類介紹，如下:
1、當不定冠詞與quite搭配使用時，不定冠詞通常放在後面。
It was quite a job to persuade.
但如果該結構中名詞前帶有形容詞，則不定冠詞 放在quite的前或後都行。
It was quite a busy day.
= It was a quite busy day.
這一點， rather和quite的用法一致。
He is a rather a fool.
It is rather an interesting film.
= It is a rather interesting film.
2、 定冠詞與quite搭配使用，定冠詞放後面表示"完全，正是"。
He's going quite the wrong way.
That was quite the nicest meal I have ever had.
但是， 若Quite修飾名詞前的形容詞，則放於定冠詞之後。
The rather slippery subject
Rather用法同quite.
