Mar 28, 2012 11:39: Rob Grayson changed "Level" from "PRO" to "Non-PRO"
Non-PRO (3): Carol Gullidge, Clarissa Hull, Rob Grayson
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.

: agreed, but not sure outdoor even needs to be specified, imho leisure centre covers indoor and outdoor. my local leisure centre (in France) is still that during the Winter, when all activities are indoors.

activity park
"Bases de loisirs" are basically big parks with activities, so if you use "center" you have to explicitly mention that it's outdoor.
| Yes, of course I hadn't thought of that! |

In this case, don't look to the translation on Termium but rather to the observation (quoted above) which explains the difference between a "base de loisirs" and a sports complex.
| I didn't think about looking on Termium. I'm not sure about 'sport' though. |

Perhps (if confidentiality is not an issue) you could also tell us where it is and what is its name
