Expand Up @@ -576,11 +576,13 @@ The third `use` statement bears more explanation. It's using "brace expansion"
globbing to compress three `use` statements into one (this sort of syntax
may be familiar if you've written Linux shell scripts before). The
uncompressed form of this statement would be:

```rust,ignore
use sayings::english;
use sayings::english::greetings as en_greetings;
use sayings::english::farewells as en_farewells;
```

As you can see, the curly brackets compress `use` statements for several items
under the same path, and in this context `self` just refers back to that path.
Note: The curly brackets cannot be nested or mixed with star globbing.
