     A composition of 3 cardinal axis rotations is typically known as a Euler
     angle parameterization of a 3D rotation. The rotations with 3 unique axes,
-    such as `RotXYZ`, are said to follow the [**Tait Byran**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles#Tait.E2.80.93Bryan_angles) angle ordering,
+    such as `RotXYZ`, are said to follow the [**Tait Bryan**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles#Tait.E2.80.93Bryan_angles) angle ordering,
     while those which repeat (e.g. `EulerXYX`) are said to use [**Proper Euler**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles#Conventions) angle ordering.
 
-    Like the two-angle versions, read the application of the rotations along the
-    static cardinal axes to a vector from right-to-left, so that `RotXYZ(x, y, z) * v == RotX(x) * (RotY(y) * (RotZ(z) * v))`.
-    This is the "extrinsic" representation of an Euler-angle rotation, though
-    if you prefer the "intrinsic" form it is easy to use the corresponding
-    `RotZYX(z, y, x)`.
+    Like the two-angle versions, the order of application to a vector is right-to-left, so that `RotXYZ(x, y, z) * v == RotX(x) * (RotY(y) * (RotZ(z) * v))`.  This may be interpreted as an "extrinsic" rotation about the Z, Y, and X axes or as an "intrinsic" rotation about the X, Y, and Z axes.  Similarly, `RotZYX(z, y, x)` may be interpreted as an "extrinsic" rotation about the X, Y, and Z axes or an "intrinsic" rotation about the Z, Y, and X axes.
