     is a human-friendly string designed to be displayed to the end-user. The
     room name is not unique, as multiple rooms can have the same room name set.
 
-    A room with an `m.room.name` event with an absent, null, or empty
-    `name` field should be treated the same as a room with no `m.room.name`
-    event.
+    If a room has an `m.room.name` event with an absent, null, or empty `name`
+    field, it should be treated the same as a room with no `m.room.name` event.
 
     An event of this type is automatically created when creating a room using
     `/createRoom` with the `name` key.
