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.

Unique Identity Code/Identity Number

This is now I would translate it. Usually is Identity Number or ID Number

Thank you Gulliette

thank you Maria
disagree Steven Hanley (X) : "Unico" means "uniform," such as a "uniform registry," such as "uniform registry number." For courts it would be "unified state courts," usually meaning both civil and criminal divisions combined into one.

Steven, are you familiar with Peru's legal name for an ID number? I think a "uniform registry number" would mean something different and would not be applicable to a birth certificate
agree philgoddard : Steven should give references if he thinks you're wrong. Uniform is uniforme. I think the idea is that you use this one number in all your dealings with the state, rather than that no two people have the same number.

Yes, that's what I think. Thank you

unique, identity code

La palabra "código" es sustantivo en este caso y se traduce al inglés como "code".La palabra "único" es adjetivo y se traduce como "unique". Las palabras "de identidad" son adjetivos también y quieren decir "identity". Palabras en inglés pueden ser adjetivo en un enunciado y la misma palabra puede ser sustantivo en otro.Todo depende en como la usamos. Dos adjetivos seguidos tienen coma entre los dos.

Code could be construed as number if it is completely made up of numbers but if it is a combination of numbers and letters or symbols then number would not work for the word código.
Example sentence:

Su código único de identidad no fue suficiente así que le pidieron la credencial para verificarlo.
