 .. method:: ArgumentParser.parse_known_args(args=None, namespace=None)
 
-   Sometimes a script may only parse a few of the command-line arguments, passing
-   the remaining arguments on to another script or program. In these cases, the
-   :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_known_args` method can be useful.  It works much like
-   :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args` except that it does not produce an error when
-   extra arguments are present.  Instead, it returns a two item tuple containing
-   the populated namespace and the list of remaining argument strings.
+   Sometimes a script only needs to handle a specific set of command-line
+   arguments, leaving any unrecognized arguments for another script or program.
+   In these cases, the :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_known_args` method can be
+   useful.
+
+   This method works similarly to :meth:`~ArgumentParser.parse_args`, but it does
+   not raise an error for extra, unrecognized arguments. Instead, it parses the
+   known arguments and returns a two item tuple that contains the populated
+   namespace and the list of any unrecognized arguments.
