      3 that I can think of.


      A way of describing something pleasant to look at, "That is a pretty dress you are wearing." 


      As part of a unit of measure, "the barrel was pretty full of water after the last big rain storm". 


      As irony, "This is pretty fine mess you've gotten us into!"
