(archaic definition) Was common in the South, as well as from the Shakespearian era and later, used as an adverb which could be translated as ‘very’, though without sounding as corny (honestly, anyone who succumbs to using ‘very’, or for that matter the verb ‘to go’<has a lot of different meanings> on a regular basis must not have a very large vocabulary). You will never hear the word ‘right’ used in this manner anymore, except by either:
A) an extremely aged geezer from the Deep South;
or
B) someone who studies etymology or finds word history particularly interesting, perhaps a Southerner
You may come across it used in this sense in a novel pertaining to a timeperiod\setting when in ’twas used, such as To Kill A Mockingbird{TKM}.

I am not the only one to find it sickeningly preposterous how many ignorant kids these days will buy immediately into this pc bs found in their middle-school and even high-school textbooks incorporating hackneyed elementary phrases which their teachers do continue to teach as proven fact to their lied-to pupils, including such phrases as "In lands controlled by Muslims, the Muslims were required to show tolerance for the religious practices of Jews and Christians."--excerption from p.15{Prologue,Section2} of 'Modern World History: Patterns of Interaction' published by McDougal Littell ©copyright C.E.2005.(Have you actually read what the Qu'ran\Koran states for yourself or seen any of the commonplace bombing which takes place on a daily basis in the boundary-disputed Middle East over just that?)
