Currently the word "Extremely" is translated to “极端”. However, “极端” has a pejorative meaning in Chinese, and usually carries a layer of meaning that "goes too far". I propose to change the translation of this word to “极度” or “极其”, which only indicate a high degree (higher than “非常” ("very")).

extremely 在英语中也经常和负面含义联系在一起,我觉得不用改。
