más del doble de común
Al igual que en la mayoría de los trastornos autoinmunes, la enfermedad es más del doble de común entre las mujeres.
La duda que tengo es con "más del doble de común entre las mujeres". Tentativamente la redacté como "is more than double as common among women", pero al querer chequear frecuencia de uso de la frase en google salió un solo resultado, como para sumar a las dudas que ya tenía... ¿Sugerencias?
TIA!!

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.
