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.

Zo te zien wordt in Engelstalige publicaties over dit onderwerp meestal ook de term 'bureau' gebruikt. Zie de onderstaande voorbeelden.
The members of the bureau of the shareholders' meeting must still be physically present at the place where the meeting is physically held. However, members of the management body and the auditor can participate remotely, provided that they are able to answer questions via the communication means used.

Members of the bureau are required to participate in person. The directors and, where applicable, the statutory auditor can attend remotely provided they are able to answer the shareholders' questions with the used communication means.

Thanks, and although a native English might understand a common term like 'politburo', 'bureau' here wouldn't explain anything |
