 The only kind of modules Textadept will load automatically are called language
 modules. Despite this distinction, they are still just plain Lua modules -- the
 only thing special about them is that a language module's name matches the
-language's lexer in Textadept's *lexers/* directory. (For example, the Lua
+language's lexer name in Textadept's *lexers/* directory. (For example, the Lua
 language module has the name "lua", and the C language module has the name
 "ansi\_c".)
