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.

Takes in
Another alternative would be "assists", though I'm not entirely sure that would be the ideal term. (At least from what was given as context)
Hope it helps! :)

I think it really depends on what the context is. If we're talking about accessibility then I would go either with accomodate or "provides access to", something along those lines.
On the other hand, if we're talking about a place that is going to provide shelter or anything of the sort, I would go with "take in" or "house".
It could also be something along the lines of government or general help for people with disabilities, which would make me inclined to go with "assists".
| I wonder why no dictionaries have defined this work as such. What do you think? |
