"Jestem trochę smutny."

Translation: I am a bit sad.

[esposch]

Would you like a hug, Duo?

Can trochę really mean "a bit" and "quite"? They seem opposite to me.

[mihxal]

It depends what "quite" you mean ;) Look here: https://www.duolingo.com/comment/12801415

But I would say that better translation would be "a little" or "a bit"

Thanks, I will redirect there

[NeptalVera]

What about "I am a little bit sad"

[Jellei]

Why not, added.

How is this with numbers

[Fuzbaul]

It involves "a bit", which involves quantity, which I guess was lumped in with numbers.

[Hot-Doggy]

The person saying it is a female, therefore, she should have said, "Jestem trochę smutna." Unless of course, she is a transsexual.

In this course, both voices use both masculine and feminine verb conjugations. This is something that can also happen in real life, when someone reads from a book, or quotes someone else.
