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.

Aslı billiards, ama sanırım ABD'de genelde "pool" kullanılır.
Bu arada Nilay hanımı çok farklı yönleriyle tanımıştık şimdiye dek, demek bilardocu sporcu bir yanı da varmış. Istakasına kuvvet.

NOT:
Nilay Dorsa gercekten bilardocu mu?
Eger degilse herhalde 'pool/snooker lover' olarak kullanmak daha dogru olacak.

player
Nilay Hanım (manken olduğunu öğrendik bu arada) zannederim pool denilen Amerikan versiyonunu oynuyordur. Çevirdiğiniz metinde bunu kanıtlayan bir bölüm veya fotoğraf varsa pool player diyebilirsiniz. Üç top oynuyorsa billiard-player (Çağdaş, billiards player demiş ama benim bildiğim yazılışı billiard-player).
Ama bilardocu için tek başına player kullanılmasında bir sakınca görmüyorum ben. Birisi elinde "cue" ile masanın yanında poz vermişse ne oynadığı bellidir zaten.
