 * Delete: SoP, and I'm not even sure I would properly call this an adjective. It's just a phrase. — Sgconlaw (talk) 16:29, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Just delete. This basically has the same meaning as honest. If this was a phrase then "extremely honest" would've been a thing. Heyandwhoa (talk) 20:21, 24 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Weak delete. Non-SOP definition and can have interesting translations but still we make ourselves ridiculous if we have this and it could proliferate, what else is brutally something? Fay Freak (talk) 14:17, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Has the THUB argument been considered? No idea what the Welsh is doing, but the Portuguese and Russian translations do appear idiomatic and the entry appears to satisfy the WT:THUB criteria. Moreover, the Portuguese translation is not linked from any other English entry (true of the Russian too, but this term is polysemic so this is not such a meaningful test there).

 * It has been considered (see Fay Freak's comment in particular) and has been found unconvincing. There are plenty of adjectives in other languages that could be translated as "very X" in English, hopefully we won't be creating THUBs for all of those. PUC – 11:02, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
