Section 1, third bullet: add "be" (otherwise the sentence is missing a verb)


"Note that #define and ## require identifiers as operands, and combining characters are generally not allowed as leading characters in identifiers.

This is correct for #define, but not for ##.
A pp-token is enough for ##; in particular, you can combine
an identifier with a pp-number (which is not an identifier).


"[ Note: In translation phase 4, identifier also includes those preprocessing-tokens (5.4 [lex.pptoken]) differentiated as keywords (5.11 [lex.key]) in the later translation phase 7 (5.6 [lex.token]). – end note ]"

Please make "identifier" and "preprocessing-token" italics (grammar references).
