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.

en priant, entrez en communion avec Dieu, dites lui les mots du plus profond de votre coeur
| Dear Herbet Abel, thanks for your response. It is good. Invite you to consider again if here "imtimes" will be better than "profond". For in my understanding, God hopes us tell out our intimate words to him, such words are out of bottom of our heart,such words perhaps always not profound.God bless you! |

If we take into account the definitions of these two dictionaries, my option is right.
En pratique, quand on prie, on doit parler avec Dieu, et pendant notre prière, on lui parle, on communique avec lui, on lui dit ce que nous avons, ce qui est dans nous ... communier semble logique pour une définition littéraire mais dans la pratique on parle, on communique, on dit à Dieu …

: surely "commune with God" is quite different from "communicate with God"?

: "communiquer" and "communier" is not the same, and the difference is not a difference in register.
