The instruction is found towards the end of the list reading:

- Rotirea incrucisata a bratelor
- A da mana usor
- ** Bate in masa **

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.

For example, to teach imitation skills an ABA therapist might ask the child “Do this” then model a behavior, for example, tapping on the table. If the child responds by tapping in the same way then he will receive a reward. This may be a raisin, a toy or praise. If the child does not respond as required then the therapist may say “no” pause and then restate the request. If the child does not respond correctly the second time then the therapist may say “no” again and take the child’s hand to make him tap on the table. Once he performs the requested behavior he’ll get the reward.

Knock on wood It sounds more like "knock on wood", same as "knock at the door" (bate la ușă)...
