Asked on March 27, 2021 in Grammar.
Quite technically can’t be used in front of a plural noun and still be grammatically correct. Using the instead of a/an when adding quite in front of a plural noun is really an idiomatic expression showing uniqueness. ex. if being an idiomatic expression having no meaning or verb. ex. She is quite the singer (or There are quite a group of boys)
Well, it is a common place, but if I look at it from a grammatical standpoint, it does not mean what you’re trying to get across.
In conclusion, ‘quite’ can be used to describe singular nouns, but cannot be used in the same way to describe plural nouns.
