English term

kneeling chair

English to Spanish Medical Medical: Health Care cancer treatment
context: If your chair or desk is too high, use a foot rest to raise your legs. Try a kneeling chair or an exercise ball.A kneeling chair tilts your hips forward. This takes pressure off your lower back. An exercise ball can rock from side to side, which helps keep your back loose.

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.

silla ergonómica con apoyo para las rodillas

Ambas compañeras tenéis razón a mi forma de verlo. Se trata de una silla ergonómica por su función y es cierto que no todas las sillas ergonómicas tiene esta forma, por lo que habría que especificar ambas opciones. De no hacerlo, la opción de Celia es la más recomendable puesto que es necesario para entender el texto, imagina que el lector sólo conoce un tipo de silla ergonómica y no posee ese apoyo para las rodillas. En fin, espero que te ayude y saludos a mis compañeras...

Saludos Gerardo
