Comment:

In example 4, we translated the example of text that is easy to read. In French it counts more words than in English, 134 words. We tried to keep it as simple as possible.
As suggested by Shadi in an e-mail exchange, we submit this change to the working group to find out if it still acceptable as translated in the French language.
