Glossary entry (derived from question below)
English term or phrase:
Researcher, Humanities Dept.
Spanish translation:
Investigador, Facultad de Humanidades
English term
Researcher, Humanities Dept.
Here's how my name will appear:
Facultad de Letras
Mateus Lee
Investigador
Does this look ok? I know you can't see the formatting - but trust me that it looks nice so long as the Spanish is 100% ok.
Is "Facultad de Letras" the correct term for "Humanities Dept" and is "investigador" a suitable title for "researcher" in Peruvian Spanish?
Jul 22, 2008 07:23: Miguel Martin changed "Edited KOG entry" from "<a href="/profile/103794">zabrowa's</a> old entry - "Researcher, Humanities Dept."" to ""Investigador, Facultad de Humanidades""
Non-PRO (1): María Diehn
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.

What Universities in Peru do you work at? What do they use?
| But the university has no Spanish standardization (in fact it is Dutch) for the dept/faculty... Which sounds better? |

: I think that there's a difference between SCHOOL (facultad/escuela) AND DEPARTMENT (departamento dentro de la "School") when speaking about universities!!! POr eso creo que esta es la opcion correcta.
