 The syntax of the \CFA language builds from C, and should look immediately familiar to C programmers.
 % Any language feature that is not described here can be assumed to be using the standard C11 syntax.
-\CFA adds many modern programming-language features, which directly leads to increased safety and productivity, while maintaining interoperability with existing C programs and achieving C performance.
+\CFA adds many modern programming-language features that directly leads to increased \emph{safety} and \emph{productivity}, while maintaining interoperability with existing C programs and achieving C performance.
 Like C, \CFA is a statically typed, procedural language with a low-overhead runtime, meaning there is no global garbage-collection.
 The primary new features include parametric-polymorphism routines and types, exceptions, concurrency, and modules.

 Unfortunately, this restriction forces programmers to use ©goto© to achieve the equivalent for more than one level of nesting.
 To prevent having to make this switch, the ©break© and ©continue© are extended with a target label to support static multi-level exit~\cite{Buhr85,Java}.
