    I changed the paragraph to
    
    The semantics thus obtained is a fairly standard first-order-logic
    semantics.  The only significant tweak is the semantic separation of
    literals, datatyped and untyped, from other entities.  The logic obtained
    is thus a two-sorted logic where one sort (the literal sort) has built-in
    predicates (the datatype predicates and the other built-ins).
    
    as not all literals are datatype literals.
