rates
Judges the quality
Rates are measurements of one quantity per unit of another—speed is distance per time, interest is percentage per year.
The word often appears in contexts of cost or frequency: crime rates, mortgage rates, hourly rates.
To rate something is to assign it a value or rank: How would you rate the service?
If something rates, it deserves consideration: That barely rates a mention.
