    Dünya Kadınlar Günü'nün tarihçesi ve kimi ülkelerde Dünya Kadınlar Gününün nasıl kutlandığı ve bazı ülkelerdeki adetler açısından faydalı ve aydınlatıcı bir yazı olmuş. Ancak metinde yeralan "In December 1977 the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution proclaiming a UN Day for Women’s Rights and International Peace." cümlesinde adopted ve resolution kelimeleri için verilen Türkçe karşılıklar adopted:edinmek resolution ise kararlılık olarak bence yanlış bir şekilde belirtilmiş. Adopted geçmiş zamanda karar vermek benimsemek resolution'ın karşılığının karar olması lazım. Adoption of a resolution: Karar alınması (hukuksal anlamda) Burada bu düzeltmeyi lütfen ukalalık olarak görmeyin. Bayan üyelerimizin Dünya Kadınlar Günü kutlu olsun.
