結構andずっと

[ax]

I think I heard this very often in conversation. However it's kinda hard to grasp its meaning in different situation. I know that 結構 means great and ずっと means always. But that is not a fix meaning. Can you guys offer different example wherein 結構 and ずっと are used in different function.

I don't know if this was deliberate or not, but just in case, the English... doesn't quite match your Japanese there.

日本に住むというのは大変な事なのですね。本当に住みにくい、いやな国です。
