 /**
+ * Ensures Drupal is bootstrapped to the specified phase.
+ *
  * In order to bootstrap Drupal from another PHP script, you can use this code:
  * @code
  *   define('DRUPAL_ROOT', '/path/to/drupal');
  *   require_once DRUPAL_ROOT . '/includes/bootstrap.inc';
- *   drupal_boostrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL);
+ *   drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL);
  * @endcode
- * In this example the Drupal installation to bootstrap is located at
- * '/path/to/drupal'. If you only want to bootstrap the Drupal database you can
- * use DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_DATABASE instead of DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL. Each phase
- * adds to the previous one, so invoking a later phase automatically runs the
- * earlier phases as well. For a full description of the different bootstrap
- * levels see the $phase parameter below.
  *
  * @param $phase
- *   A Drupal bootstrap constant. The possible bootstrap levels are:
+ *   A constant telling which phase to boostrap to. When you bootstrap to a
+ *   particular phase, all earlier phases are run automatically. Possible
+ *   values:
  *   - DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_CONFIGURATION: Initializes configuration.
- *   - DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_PAGE_CACHE: Tries to server a cached page.
+ *   - DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_PAGE_CACHE: Tries to serve a cached page.
  *   - DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_DATABASE: Initializes the database layer.
  *   - DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_VARIABLES: Initializes the variable system.
  *   - DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_SESSION: Initializes session handling.
