Marking a successful examination result (10)
I believe the answer is:
graduation
This clue might be a double definition.
'marking' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'a successful examination result' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to natural events as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for graduation that I've seen is " Successful completion of study".)
