Jo 'referendums' ir tikai viens vārds juridiskajā vārdnīcā. Interesting that among all the ultra fancy legal English, the word 'thing' is used a lot -> from wikipedia "A thing (Old Norse, Old English and Icelandic: þing; Norwegian, Danish and Swedish: ting; German and Dutch: ding) was the governing assembly of a Germanic society, made up of the free people of the community presided over by lawspeakers. Its meeting-place was called a thingstead."
