-====== Search options ======
+====== 2.3 Search options ======
 When you query the corpus, you receive an output with a list of search results. What this search results look like depends on your query but also on the setting in //Search options//. You find these settings as an alternative to the corpus list by selecting the according tab. These settings are set for all queries that you make in the future until you close ANNIS and start it again. In that case, they are set back to the default.
 ===== Context =====
 Often, it does not make sense to look at an individual token or message. Instead you want to see what was written before and after the text that you queried. The first three options in the //Search options// define what you see for each query:
-  * Show context in ...: here you got the option to show tokens or messages to the left or right. If you chose tokens, you get a very narrow view. If you choose messages, you might have to search for what you are looking for because messages can be very long.
+  * Show context in ...: here you can choose "tokens (default)" or "msg" to be the unit for the context window, i.e. the number of tokens or the number of messages to the left and right. If you chose tokens, you get a very narrow view. If you choose messages, you might have to search for what you are looking for because messages can be very long.
   * Left and right context: depending on what you selected as a context, you can say how many tokens or messages to the left and to the right you want to see.
