 # Scalar OpenPOWER Audio and Video Opcodes
 
-the fundamental principle of SV is a hardware for-loop. therefore the first (and in nearly 100% of cases only) place to put Vector operations is firat and foremost in the *scalar* ISA.
+the fundamental principle of SV is a hardware for-loop. therefore the first (and in nearly 100% of cases only) place to put Vector operations is first and foremost in the *scalar* ISA.  However only by analysing those scalar opcodes *in* a SV Vectorisation context does it become clear why they are needed and how they may be designed.
 
 This page therefore has acompanying discussion at <https://bugs.libre-soc.org/show_bug.cgi?id=230> for evolution of suitable opcodes.
