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.

Many thanks jsmcgregor.
agree Julie Barber : Word itself in English uses "centre" though not centred. Colin + Poly - it is aligned not justified (which refers to something else)

center-justified

It seems to me that back in the good old days (before Office 2007), when I
created a center-justified text box the text would center-justify as I typed,
allowing me to place the center of the box where I wanted it to be.

Now, the box acts as if it were left-justified, expanding to the right while
I type and only becomes center-justified when I hit the RETURN.

Peer comment(s):

disagree Julie Barber : "centre" and "justify" are two separate things in Word and this would create confusion. Centre alignment (aligné) is OK, but not justify/ open up Word and you will see that justify patently refers to something different; this refers to alignment

The asker said ''Word ou autre logiciels''. I don't see how center-justified could be confusing.
