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.

professional sports

Confronted with "deportes amateurs". That's what it means in Argentina. For example, when I was young, I used to practice "long jump" and I was "federada" by the FAM (Federación Atlética Metropolitana). That means I was not an amateur. I guess that's the difference, but I'll ask my sister, who is Sports Editor in the Buenos Aires Herald, an American paper in Argentina. She will know for sure.

My sister was off last night, but I asked someone else in the sports section and they suggested \"registered sports\" since they say that \"professional sports\", as I suggested, was probably going to be associated to getting money for playing, and being federado doesn\'t necessarily mean that you are paid... I hope it helps.

Comment: "I think its more "association sports" or "associated sports". Federated is too American. I should have stipulated that in my question. Many apologies"
