English term
six whiney children tugging on every free appendage
A: What else do you want to know about my idyllic life up there? Up there in the wilderness where men are men and women can smell them at fifty paces. Where I welcome our guests each summer with an inviting smile and six whiney children tugging on every free appendage like suckling piglets on a sow’s teat.
La mia proposta:
A: Dove accolgo i nostri ospiti ogni estate con un sorriso invitante e sei bambini lagnosi tirano ogni appendice libera come maialini da latte alla tetta di una scrofa.
Cerco soluzioni migliori.

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.
