May 25, 2005 22:16: Szymon Cegielka changed "Level" from "Non-PRO" to "PRO"

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (3): bartek, Joanna Rączka, Szymon Cegielka

Non-PRO (2): Marta28, allp

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.

Discussion

Joanna Borowska May 25, 2005:
To me, it doesn't seem like a typical expression ending a letter, rather a phone conversation. But anyway, it suggests that the sender hopes to talk to the addressee soon, just as lim0nka says (or literally: hear his/her voice).

looking forward to hearing from you

It is quite common to end English letters with an expression like this.

I did\'t mean to change the level to PRO - actually it is rather a basic question. Don\'t know how it happened I am among the ones who voted for reclasification.
