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.

French term (edited): s'engage/r à respecter les obligations

covenant to /shall/ heed the obligations

There are various way *of expressing* this idea (a ProZ regulars' favo(u)rite: ways 'to' express this idea').

For French vs. English legal purposes - pace ProZ regulars, the covenant or undertaking need not be contained ina Deed under Seal.

Reversing the word order, primarily for leasing - rather than employment - purposes: undertakes to heed the covenants

Afwan - you're welcome !
Peer comment(s):

neutral AllegroTrans : There are "various" ways but why jettison "undertakes to" which is the direct and obviously correct translation?
