Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Lingua.Franca

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.

common sorrel / rumex

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumex

The docks and sorrels, genus Rumex L., are a genus of about 200 species of annual, biennial and perennial herbs in the buckwheat family Polygonaceae.

Members of this family are very common perennial herbs growing mainly in the northern hemisphere, but various species have been introduced almost everywhere.

Some are nuisance weeds (and are sometimes called dockweed or dock weed), but some are grown for their edible leaves.

Rumex species are used as food plants by the larvae of a number of Lepidoptera species - see list of Lepidoptera that feed on Rumex.

http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sóska

A sóska (Rumex acetosa) a keserűfűfélék (Polygonaceae) családjába tartozó évelő, lágyszárú levélzöldség. Egész Európában őshonos, de megtalálható Észak-Amerikában, Ázsiában és Chilében is.

Jellegzetes savanyú ízét a benne található oxálsavnak köszönheti. Hashajtó hatása is van.

Spenót (főzelék) jellegű étel készíthető belőle, de használják saláták ízének fokozására is. Savanykás ízének étvágygerjesztő hatása is van. Magas C-vitamin tartalmának köszönhetően hatékonynak tartják a skorbut gyógyítására és megelőzésére. Sok ásványi sót, meszet, foszfort és vasat tartalmaz. Frissen szedve kedvelt gyerekcsemege.
Note from asker:
I chose this because I like the addition of the word 'common' plus the Latin root, very helpful
