+### Non-greedy repetition
+
+Repetition operators marked with "(non-greedy)" indicate that the repetition stops matching as soon as possible rather than matching as much as possible. For example:

+```grammar,example
+@root EXAMPLE_STRING ->

+```
+
+When presented with the input `"one" or "two"`, the EXAMPLE_STRING rule will match `"one"` instead of the entire input.
