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.

Just an additional comment on this. It is kind of Euro-English, in the sense that in the UK we use "1st round, 2nd round, etc.", but I think it's the best solution here, as it won't be affected if additional rounds are added in future years. Also, how do we decide when the first-round proper begins and which rounds are preliminary rounds.
Round of X is increasingly common in English, probably thanks largely to Eurosport who regularly use it.

As an aside, am continually amazed by the way certain people nonchalently nominate stuff for 'non-pro' status - as Charles' research has clearly shown, this is about as straightforward as Calculus!

Timothy Barton
: I agree in principle, but the problem is how do you decide which is the 1st round proper if they don't use the same terminology? Also, given her context, she needs to make sure the translation still works if an additional round is added for future years.

Take your first point, Timothy. In terms of the translation still working in future years, I'm not sure if that's so crucial - there have been many such changes made to the English, Scottish and French Cups over the years, for example.

Reference comments
Copa del Rey: treintaidosavos
The system has changed. If you go back to 2004/2005, for example, it was fairly straightforward. There were seven rounds:
1. Fase previa: 34 minor teams, 17 matches.
2. Treintaidosavos: 64 team, 32 matches: the 17 winners from the fase previa plus all 20 Primera clubs and a further 27 from lower divisions.
3. Dieciseisavos: 32 teams (winners of previous round), 16 matches.
4. Octavos: 16 teams, 8 matches (two legs)
5. Cuartos: 8 teams, 4 matches (two legs)
6. Semifinales: 4 teams, 2 matches (two legs)
7. Final
However, when you look at the current season (2011/2012), with the aid of As and Marca, it's much more complicated. There are now eight rounds (As uses the word "eliminatoria" and Marca uses "ronda"):
1. Primera Ronda/Eliminatoria: 36 teams, of which 1 was from Tercera (Cerceda), 7 from Segunda B and the other 28 "non-league"; 18 matches.
2. Segunda Ronda/Eliminatoria: 46 teams, the 18 winners from the Primera Ronda plus the whole of Segunda ("Liga Adelante") (except Barcelona B and Villarreal B: "filiales" don't play in the cup), and a further 8 from Segunda B and non-league (don't ask me why); 23 matches.
3. Tercera Ronda/Eliminatoria: 22 teams, the winners of the Segunda Ronda, except Oviedo, who got a bye to the next round; 11 matches.
4. Dieciseisavos: 32 teams, the 11 winners from the Tercera Ronda, plus Oviedo (who won in the Segunda Ronda and got a bye in the Tercera), plus all 20 Primera clubs.
5. Octavos
6. Cuartos
7. Semifinales
8. Final.
So there is no longer, literally, a "round of 64" as there was previously in the Second Round. Because the Primera clubs don't enter the competition until the fourth round, which is known everywhere as "Dieciseisavos", there are only 22 clubs in the round before this (Tercera), and 46 in the one before that (Segunda).
So what does "Treintaidosavos" mean now? Logically, you would have thought, it should be the round before Dieciseisavos. Well, yes and no.
In match reports, strange though it may seem, the word is applied both to the Second Round and the Third Round. You get the impression that having been lumbered with this arcane system (doubtless through pressure from the big clubs who don't want to have to play the early rounds), people are not quite sure what it means any more.
Here, for example, "treintaidosavos" refers to the Segunda Ronda/Eliminatoria:
http://www.as.com/futbol/articulo/deportivo-despega-gran-rec...
http://www.marca.com/2011/09/07/futbol/copa_rey/1315426051.h...
http://msn.mediotiempo.com/futbol/internacional/noticias/201...
And here it refers to the Tercera:
http://www.que.es/deportes/201110121159-celta-enfrenta-real-...
http://picotea.com/es/canales/44/el-oviedo-queda-exento-en-t...
http://realvalladolid.elnortedecastilla.es/noticias/2011-10-...
So what do you call it? If you say "round of 64", which is a bit of misnomer now that no round has 64 clubs, it's not clear which round you're referring to. I think that since both As and Marca use "treintiadosavos" to refer to the Segunda Ronda, it would probably be best to say "from the Second Round (onwards)"; after all, this includes the Third Round as well. Before they changed the system "treintaidosavos" was unambiguously the Second Round.

Thanks, Martyn! I must admit it was sheer obstinacy; you look at it and think: "what the hell's going on here?" But I agree completely that no way is this non-Pro.

: Great research, Charles. [Off topic:] So filiales don't play in the Cup? I didn't know that, although I knew they can't promote to 1st division. Seems v. tough to me.

Well yes, it does. But there are a number strange things going on here. It has a classic "designed-by-committee" look about it, probably the result of a lot of backroom argument. Thanks, Emma :)
