+        to the containing locations of role / play / include and so on.
       - The list of files has precedence over the paths searched.
-        i.e, A task in a  role has a 'file1' in the play's relative path, this will be used, 'file2' in role's relative path will not.
+        For example, A task in a role has a 'file1' in the play's relative path, this will be used, 'file2' in role's relative path will not.
       - Either a list of files C(_terms) or a key `files` with a list of files is required for this plugin to operate.
     notes:
       - This lookup can be used in 'dual mode', either passing a list of file names or a dictionary that has C(files) and C(paths).
