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.

SafeTex Oct 13, 2022:
@ Daryo I've looked at all your disagrees, neutrals and discussion posts and you think it's "club bookings".
But this is NOT said explicitly, no more than "kids club"
See Writeaway's neutral comment where he says:
not convinced they don't mean a kids' club
Daryo Oct 13, 2022:
Could it mean "courses for adults and children, and clubhouse"?

If you look only at the words, yes it could - at a stretch. But realistically, un club = "clubhouse" is not very likely in this ST.

D'une part les enfants, d'autre part les clubs d'alpinisme.

Or it could be a bar. Though not for children :-)
Have you looked up their website?

Climbing clubs

I think they mean they offer courses (or whatever you want to call “stages” here — I often struggle with translating that word :-) for kids, as well as catering to group bookings from people in climbing clubs (or mountaineering clubs).
Peer comment(s):

neutral Thomas Miles : Qualifying as 'mountaineering' seems more appropriate.

neutral writeaway : not convinced they don't mean a kids' club
7 hrs
neutral Daryo : yes, they mean "group booking" by people organised in clubs - but not necessarily clubs of climbers. For all we know, it could be a club of people interested in no more than trekking.

(children's) club

Hello
Assuming the author did not mean "clubs" in the plural, my take on this is that there are training programmes and a club for children
Peer comment(s):

disagree Daryo : all I can see there is a list of two separate elements (1) enfants and (2) club // Can't see any "club pour enfants"
14 hrs
It doesn't say climbing club either so maybe you think it's just a nightclub?
neutral AllegroTrans : Can't see how you get from "enfants et club" to "club pour enfants" but it is possible
15 hrs
I think it's implied by the proxiimity to "enfants". As I said to Daryo, it does not say cliimbing club" either but that does not mean it's just a club as in nightclub does it?

club bookings

I think this means that they accept club bookings
"stage pour enfants" is separate
