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.
Proposed translations
partnership / affectio societatis
This is the French legal concept that means that two people or more share the same idea, and personally commit themselves to achieving the purpose of the association.
The combining of contributions and the sharing of profits are not always enough to distinguish a contract of partnership from other juridical acts, such as association[24] and indivision.[25] The courts and legal authors have therefore added an indispensable subjective criterion: the intention to be involved in a partnership or affectio societatis, which is enshrined in the new Civil Code by the expression «spirit of cooperation

Lumen (X)
: Affectio societatis is the Latin expression meaning that two people wish to enter into a partnership. It is, to be accurate, the "animus" (a word that is frequently used in jurisprudence, the mind, in the meaning of intention) to constitute a society.
