Answer

They are not idioms and both mean "partially or not really"

For example:
She sort of resembles her best friend, Angela.

Answer

They're not idioms. Some speakers put these phrases in front of adjectives to mean "more or less" in a casual way. It's a fairly noncommittal habit of speaking, and very very annoying when a person does it too much.

Answer

It basically means "not exactly". I kind of like it, but not really.
