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.

certified copy of a record of birth (BrE)
However, before tritely paraphrasing to a 'birth certificate', we need to bear in mind 1. certificación en extracto - (Esp) a certified extract, West and 2. like Guyana, British Honduras as an erstwhile UK Crown Colony until 1964 and, as a consequence, using BrE terminology, such as: 'a certified copy of a *birth entry*, commonly known as a birth certificate, is a verified duplicate of the official record of a birth.'.

Note added for the benefit and edification of ProZ regulars > puedes solicitarla de forma presencial: 'you can *bespeak* such certificate by attending in person..'

Charles Davis
: If you had posted the term "birth entry", used in your explanation, I would have agreed with it. But "record of birth" is a birth certificate, as you say, and that is not what "acta de nacimiento" means.

De modo que la terminología hondureña se presta a confusión; pero al examinar los documentos se aclaran las dudas.
