Hi. About this one:<br> |
|||
"The flowers are arranged in [[:wikt:cymose|cymose]] determinate [[inflorescence]]s at the extremity of a [[Scape (botany)|scape]], sometimes compacted and similar to [[umbel]]s—for which they are called "pseudoumbels"—rarely reduced to solitary flowers." <br> |
|||
Does it mean: <br> |
|||
"The flowers are arranged in [[:wikt:cymose|cymose]] that determinate [[inflorescence]]s at the extremity of a [[Scape (botany)|scape]]. These inflorescences are sometimes compacted and similar to [[umbel]]s, and in that case are called "pseudoumbels". They are rarely reduced to solitary flowers." <br> |
|||
or does it mean something else? |
|||
And this one: <br> |
|||
The involucral [[bract]]s, those enclosing the flower buds, may be present or absent. <br> |
|||
"those" is ambiguous. Can mean : <br> |
|||
"The involucral [[bract]]s, which enclose the flower buds, may be present or absent." <br> |

Meaning there are no other bracts than those enclosing the flower buds. <br> |
|||
or <br> |
|||
"The involucral [[bract]]s which enclose the flower buds, may be present or absent." <br> |

Meaning that there may be other bracts apart from the ones that may be present around the flower buds. |
