My Definition: archaic; is used to depicts when something, or someone is old, or old-fashioned.

I was able to arrive at this definition because from 1984 archaic meant obsolete or belonging to an earlier period, while The Cambridge Dictionary, Defined Archaic; as belonging to an ancient period in history or time.

So following my definition it can be concluded that archaic is used to represent something old or old-fashioned.

Answer:

Very old fashioned

Explanation:

If you use the adjective archaic you are referring to something outmoded, belonging to an earlier period. Rotary phones and cassette players already seem so archaic!

The adjective archaic means something that belongs to an earlier or antiquated time. It can also mean something that is outdated but can still be found in the present and therefore could seem out of place. The word comes from archaic (i.e., ancient) Greek, archaikos, and literally means "from Classical Greek culture," though its meaning has broadened as it's been used in English.
