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.

precise answer to question Between the two options posed by the Asker, 50% off for teens. You need the "for."
philgoddard Dec 16, 2019:
Underaged would be a major mistranslation.
patinba Dec 16, 2019:
Not Underaged Sorry, but I have never ever seen "underaged" used in this context. It is used in the sense of "less than the required age" for sex, drinking, driving etc. If you are underaged, you cant, in other words. "Discount for underaged" gets zero hits "Discount for teens" gets half a million.
Sandy Herrera (asker) Dec 16, 2019:
david 50% off ungeraged
50% off for uneraged
50% discount for underaged

Something like that?
David Hollywood Dec 16, 2019:
didn't know Chris speaks Welsh and a Celtic surprise there :)
David Hollywood Dec 16, 2019:
I know, as my step daughter (24) always scrambles for the best deals
David Hollywood Dec 16, 2019:
"off" might catch the eye of the "underaged" as they go for that
David Hollywood Dec 16, 2019:
or: 50% off
David Hollywood Dec 16, 2019:
you could say "underaged" if you have to
Sandy Herrera (asker) Dec 16, 2019:
Se me había olvidado comentar que el mercado meta es Estados Unidos y Canadá.

50% discount for teenagers

Si es un hotel de lujo, usará una comunicación más formal, creo yo, aunque depende del hotel.
Note from asker:
¿Esa estructura se usa para Estados Unidos Y Canadá?

agree bigedsenior : Although 50% discount and Half-off would equal the same amount, I don't see any reason to change the text.

agree neilmac : Re: asker's question, I think "50% off for teens" might be more suitable for US/Canada, although it'd also be fine for Uk readers.
