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.

Vesna Maširević Feb 1, 2017:
Ovo nije naučno pitanje. Kad neko kaže da je u cigareti našao koren, ni pod tačkom razno ne misli na "zadebljanje u sredini lista". Da misli na "zadebljanje u sredini lista", rekao bi "naišao sam na panj u cigareti, a onda sam sproveo istraživanje da proverim šta bi to moglo biti, da bih zaključio da je u pitanju zadebljanje iz sredine lista".

"корен" је део листа дувана (задебљање у средини листа) не било какав корен (=root) ишчупан из земље;

чак ни у овом чланку се не спомиње никакав корен типа "root":

root

a piece of root :)
Peer comment(s):

disagree Daryo : "корен" је највероватније део дршке листа дувана (петељке) или самог листа // нико не бере дуван тако да чупа целу биљку са све кореном, једино листове и можда петељке.

Samo što pitanje nije šta je dotični verovatno zapravo našao u cigareti, već šta je rekao da je našao :) Pretpostavljam da ste nepušač ;)
agree Vuka Mijuskovic : , pušač: Obično se kaže "panj" u cigareti (i najprecizniji odgovor je od biljast107). Ali ako kaže koren, verovatnije je da baš na to misli.

I sama sam više puta izgovorila isto (upravo sa grozomornom idejom da je to neki "koren" od ko zna čega, a u (neuspelom) pokušaju da bliže definišem "panj":-)

chunk of wood

Radi se o nečistoćama kao što su parčići drveta, metala i slično koje završe u cigaretama.
Example sentence:

I recently purchased 100 pack of mayfair superkings from my local tesco. I am very disappointed as most of the cigarettes had long pieces of wood in them!

a chip of root

Obzirom na proces pomoću kog je taj koren završio u duvanu

It chipped off and ended up among finely cut leaves
Peer comment(s):

disagree Daryo : "It chipped off" - off what? there are not "roots" around when cigarettes are made.

корен и ребра - делови листа дувана

Бере се од дна ка врху стабљике и то само листови код којих су већ пожутели и корен и ребра
