Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Beatriz Ramírez de Haro

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.

Muchas gracias a todos. Cierro sin dar puntos, porque los que primeros en ayudarme fueron los que comentaron en el "foro" de discusión.

@Pablo Julián. No he podido resistir recordar el “anuncio” de Les Luthiers donde después de mucho “suspense” o “suspenso”... y mucho misterio (el Asesino Misterioso)... al final acaban diciendo:
“Ud. nunca descubrirá hasta el final de la película que el asesino es... Jack, el Forastero”.
Ah, aquí está:

Tenés razón, Patinba :)

en realidad está bien redactado, y queda mejor con la coma, y sin el "the"
SabriR (asker) Jan 15, 2014:
Ahh, gracias, está mal redactado, falta un "the". Gracias!! :)

conforme va pasando la noche, [el detective] principal

Pero conforme va pasando la noche, el detective principal XXX y su equipo se dan cuenta de algo inquietante sobre el comportamiento del Kathy.

Oxford bilingual:
wear on [v + adv] « winter / years » pasar, transcurrir (lentamente); «meeting / drought » continuar*; as the months wore on a medida que iban pasando los meses; the day wore on seguían pasando las horas

Suerte.

Gracias, Pablo... Sí, lo de “inquietante” creo que hace que el suspense... [suspenso] vaya en crescendo... aumentando las pulsaciones... al imaginar la que podría intuirse horripilante Y sobrecogedora escena del crimen... uy-uy-uy... ay-ay-ay...
