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.

--------------------------------------------------
A joint tenancy is a tenancy created where the same interest in a property (real or personal) is passed by the same conveyance to two or more individuals by construction or by operation of law jointly, with a right of ownership.
Joint tenants own an undivided interest in the property as a whole; each share is equal, and no one joint tenant can ever have a larger share.

Margaret Marks
: Joint tenancy is close to ownership in common-law land law, hence no discrepancy. But 'joint' has a narrower meaning in contrast to co- /we don't know it's undivided
