The list may also be used as a reference for the intended meaning of intent concept terms and so has many entries that do not require custom speech rules. +Unless otherwise noted below, the argument order of the concepts +follows the order used by the presentation MathML elements that are +typically used represent the concept. For linear notations such as +`plus`, this means the left-to-right order used in an mrow. For power, +it means the order used in msup (base, exponent).
