Turn on the violin
Turn on the violin you get the sound / Zing zing zing zing, zi-zi-zi-zing / The sound makes you always so happy / zing zing zing zi-zi-zi-zing / We like the sound of the violin / We are all having a good time.
Entiendo que "turn on" no está funcionando como un phrasal verb en imperativo porque no le encuentro sentido con ninguna de sus acepciones, pero tampoco estoy segura de que esté funcionando como sustantivo (turn = grupeto). ¿Qué opinan? ¿Cómo traducirían la frase completa?

Non-PRO (1): Juan Jacob
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.
Proposed translations
