"kaverznye voprosy" - options

[Timothy Sergay]

A "trick question" can be a deliberate trap ("proval'nyi vopros,"  
"vopros na zasypku"), but "tricky question" is different, and might  
help.  Apresyan also lists "sinuous question" (maybe I just haven't  
encountered this before) and also "sixty-four dollar question."
