Spanish term

poder ejecutivo

Non-PRO Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) rights of trans community
El gobierno de Costa Rica promulgó, el 12 de mayo de 2015, el decreto ejecutivo 38999 que apunta a eliminar la discriminación en los órganos del poder ejecutivo. El decreto tiene como objetivo eliminar la discriminación contra la población “sexualmente diversa” de quienes laboran en el poder ejecutivo y frente a quienes son usuarios de sus servicios. Para hacerla efectiva, da un plazo de cuatro meses a partir de su promulgación, para que cada órgano del ejecutivo desarrolle un plan institucional que incluya capacitación de los funcionarios públicos en derechos humanos; reformas a las prácticas de prestación de servicios para que incluyan las necesidades de la población sexualmente diversa; regulación de las facultades del ejecutivo para que no puedan generar disposiciones discriminatorias o que generen discriminación; desarrollar normas con un lenguaje inclusivo y respetuoso de los derechos humanos y garantizar los recursos para que la declaración se implemente

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (3): philgoddard, Phoenix III, Yvonne Gallagher

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.

Depending on your context you might want to use "executive" or "executive branch".

The term "executive power" refers to the authority of the "executive branch", however, they are not synonyms.

neutral philgoddard : //Sorry to change my mind, but I think "executive/executive branch"sounds better than "organs of executive power".
