-For some kinds of expression (like most music not enclosed in braces)
-LilyPond needs to look further than the expression itself in order to
-determine its end. If such an expression were considered for an
-optional argument by evaluating its predicate, LilyPond would not be
-able to @q{backup} when it decides the expression does not fit the
-parameter. So some forms of music might need to be enclosed in braces
-to make them acceptable in some circumstances. Some other
+Some
ambiguities LilyPond sorts out by checking with predicate
functions: is @samp{-3} a fingering postevent or a negative number? Is
@code{"a" 4} in lyric mode a string followed by a number, or a lyric
For example, a predicate accepting both music expressions and
pitches will consider @code{c''} to be a pitch rather than a music
-expression. Immediately following durations or postevents might
-not work with that interpretation. So it's best to avoid overly
+expression. Immediately following durations or postevents will
+change that interpretation. It's best to avoid overly
permissive predicates like @code{scheme?} when the application
rather calls for more specific argument types.
