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.

quiver-like assembly on the dental unit

I suppose this curing lights are assembled on the instruments' table of the dental operatory unit in the way the arrows stay in a quiver :)
...Maybe the other colleagues can develop my idea in giving you a better answer...

Good luck!

Peer comment(s):

agree Mihaela Petrican : ciao, B! lontana da me l'idea di contraddire l'esperta :)...ma non potevano dire "montaggio sulla faretra del riunito" per non confonderci le idee? mi sa che l'Asso è tuo, comunque :)

potevano anche dire montato sul riunito, non sarebbe cambiato nulla. Magari volevano fare gli "intellettuali" :-)
