When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

@ Doroteja Wenn man keine Wörterbücher hat (weder als Buch noch Online) kann man (mit aller Vorsicht !!!) auch automatische Online-Übersetzer verwenden, um sich einen ersten Eindruck vom Inhalt des Quelltextes zu verschaffen. Diese versagen zwar häufig bei schwierigen technischen Texten, sind aber in der Lage kurze und einfache Sätze zu 90 % richtig zu übersetzen. Der allgemein bekannteste ist Google Translate. Schauen wir mal, was er aus dem kurzen Zitat macht:

the lid is not shut
Der Deckel ist nicht geschlossen

Oft spricht man auch von Tür oder Bullauge, das hängt davon ab, ob die Waschmaschine von oben oder vorne geladen wird
