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.

A frase foi completada no espaço destinado à explicação (devido à falta de espaço na área da sugestão).
edecastroalves (asker) May 2, 2013:
Faltou completar a tradução: "já me danei toda".
Grata.
Marlene Curtis May 2, 2013:
The strikes or knocks, as you say it, are still used in some small theaters nowadays.
Liam Burke May 2, 2013:
In English one usually refers to the "three knocks" (of a stick/staff) on the stage floor. But these have been replaced in modern times by bells or other sounds.

When the sound of Molière's baton/strikes are heard on the stage (announcing the beginning of the play) I have already been through a lot (of trouble) to get here.

utilizada para as pancadas de Molière, batidas rápidas no tablado, seguidas de três lentas e
compassadas, para avisar a plateia que o espetáculo vai começar. Page 3.
