FRENCH - Does French have an equivalent to "pretty" as in "She's pretty nice" or "They're pretty funny"?

OpenStudy (vincent-lyon.fr):

Usually, the adverb pretty is translated "assez" or "plutôt", but I'm not sure this is the degree conveyed by pretty in "pretty funny". If "pretty funny" means the are "really funny", then a colloquial term can be "drôlement" or "sacrement".

Thank you! So to say "She's pretty nice," how would either "assez" or "plutôt" be conjugated?

OpenStudy (vincent-lyon.fr):

I would say "Elle est très sympa", "Elle est vraiment sympa" or "Elle est plutôt sympa", depending on the context of the original sentence.
