Katsumi, "qui" ==> Who
It's French.

I can talk French, but I prefer English, it's easier.

Un filet - Masculin.

Fillette mignonne

Une fillette - Féminin.

"Angelina Jolie et sa fillette mignonne."

Thank you for the French lesson (I mean that sincerely) but the filet mignon comment wasn't related to Angelina Jolie

Weird foreign gradings!

Here, 1 is best and 5 meaning you fail class (at universities, 4 is failure mark - sufficient is just not enough)

Also, we have "Descriptive" names for grades.

1 - Výborný - Outstanding
2 - Chvalitebný - Praiseworthy
3 - Dobrý - Good
4 - Dostatečný - Sufficient
5 - Nedostatečný - Insufficient

But kinda agree. I mean, come on - PvE in Guild Wars is like one of the worst I've ever seen in any games when it comes to actual fight of people vs Arch Idiots. It's like a war, where tanks in huge amounts (monsters) are getting assraped by the infantry (players) with tactical nuclear launchers.
Never heard of Napoleon?

So a crossover between Polish (names sounding almost same and few same grade names) and German (where 6 = fail, 1 = best). Here we have:

1 - Niedostateczny - Insufficient, fail.
2. Dopuszczający - Qualifying - barely made it.
3. Dostateczny - Sufficient (my only Dostateczny was at Physics - there rest was 4, 5 and 6 this year ;p)
4. Dobry - Good.
5. Bardzo Dobry - Very Good.
6. Celujący - Marvelous. Well, hard to translate it, but it can be classified as Outstanding or Terrific.
