Having read the docstring for match-beginning, the sentence "SUBEXP, a number,
specifies which parenthesized expression in the last regexp." seems incomplete
because it lacks a clear explanation (purpose or context) of what the
specification
of the parenthesized expression accomplishes or how it is used.
To make the sentence complete, it needs an additional clause that clarifies the
outcome or the role of specifying the parenthesized expression.
Here's an example of a more complete sentence:
"SUBEXP, a number, specifies which parenthesized expression in the last regexp
to extract or manipulate, providing precise control over the parts of the match
that are used."
--------
(match-beginning SUBEXP)
Return position of start of text matched by last search.
SUBEXP, a number, specifies which parenthesized expression
in the last regexp.
