Non-PRO (1): writeaway

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.

Hi,

Please note that fruit CAKE would never be eaten with cheese , while a fruit LOAF would. Fruit cake is too sweet!
Note from asker:
Thanks Kate, I followed your link and am going with fruit cake, it fits my text best.
Peer comment(s):

agree sindy cremer : Usually contains nuts as well. Also written with an "s": "kletsenbrood". With Kate: definitely not "cake"!

9098 Desem Kletzenbrood
Traditioneel volgens Oostenrijks recept
bereid. Door toevoeging van natuurlijke
desem ondergaat dit brood een spontane gisting van meer dan 4 uur. Dit luxe brood is gevuld met vijgen, peren, pruimen, walnoten,
hazelnoten, rozijnen, gekonfijte citroenstukje,
gekonfijte sinaasappelstukjes, specerijen en rum.
Kletzenbrood wordt oorspronkelijk gegeten met Kerstmis,
besmeerd met boter en honing, maar vormt ook een perfecte
combinatie met kaas en/of kaasgerechten.
