Sep 27, 2021 22:06: Andrea Capuselli changed "Term Context" from "An IPA Medical Group is an association of independent providers that may be comprised of hospitals, primary care and specialist providers who form together to provide health care services. I think it should be \"form\" \"something\"." to "Context removed by ProZ.com staff."

Apr 29, 2024 02:08: Cilian O'Tuama changed "Level" from "PRO" to "Non-PRO"

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (3): Yvonne Gallagher, philgoddard, Cilian O'Tuama

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.

"Context removed by ProZ.com staff." Why not just delete the whole Q?
This unexplained haphazard censorship is absurd.

joined their efforts, united, joined together

It is often used in this meaning, though looks incomplete for me personally as well

typo

Maybe it should be:

who work together to provide...
or
who come together to provide...

At least that'd make sense.
Peer comment(s):

agree philgoddard : I don't think it's a typo, just slightly odd English.

Yes, perhaps it's not actually wrong.
agree David Hollywood : "form together" doesn't sound quite right in this context so you get my agree but don't think it's a typo (just badly phrased)
