Spanish term

no solo en términos numéricos

Non-PRO Spanish to English Other International Org/Dev/Coop Report
Source text:

Dicho estado puede deberse entre algunas causas a que las infraestructuras del sistema educativo no son adecuadas ya que carecen de techos, reforzamiento de paredes y muros, letrinas, mesas y pupitres, para dar respuesta a la demanda estudiantil de la zona, no solo en términos numéricos, sino de demandas de un buen ambiente que contribuya a mayor atención, deseos de mantenerse en el aula y ganas de estudiar.

... Maybe "not only in terms of quantity"?
Change log

Dec 5, 2016 21:20: Yvonne Gallagher changed "Level" from "PRO" to "Non-PRO"

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (3): Carol Gullidge, Jane Martin, Yvonne Gallagher

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.
