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.

neutral writeaway : a few million examples of this very context or just a few million examples of the words "first introduced"?

of first introduced, which I agree is a bit wild (maybe it's the heat) but I did go through several pages of relevant examples and I did pick out three that I thought demonstrated the use quite clearly. Sorry for the exaggeration .

first broadcast

Are they talking about the station being opened or the first time they went to air?
Obviously this would only work if they are talking about the first time the station went to air.
If they are talking about the building or the company, then I would use hirselina's version.

born (in context

"How and when were the first Italian radio stations born?"
The word nascere is used a great deal in Italian where in English it is too dramatic and we would use something like "started" "formed" or established. However, in this case we are talking about the historical "birth" of a new phenomenon, pretty dramatic.
Wiki uses "born" in this context and if Googles fairly well.

After the war, numerous radio stations were born and set the standard for later radio programs. The first radio news program was broadcast on August 31, 1920 on the station 8MK in Detroit, Michigan. This was followed in 1920 with the first commercial radio station in the United States, KDKA, being established in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
