Hello, I am a member of the PostgreSQL documentation Japanese translation team.

I noticed that the nextval tag in ref/create_sequence.sgml is different.
Is this just a mistake?

diff --git a/doc/src/sgml/ref/create_sequence.sgml

Furthermore, although multiple sessions are guaranteed to allocate
distinct sequence values, the values might be generated out of
sequence when all the sessions are considered. For example, with
a <replaceable class="parameter">cache</replaceable> setting of 10,
session A might reserve values 1..10 and return
<function>nextval</function>=1, then session B might reserve values
11..20 and return <function>nextval</function>=11 before session A
- has generated <literal>nextval</literal>=2. Thus, with a
+ has generated <function>nextval</function>=2. Thus, with a
<replaceable class="parameter">cache</replaceable> setting of one
it is safe to assume that <function>nextval</function> values are generated
sequentially; with a <replaceable
class="parameter">cache</replaceable> setting greater than one you
should only assume that the <function>nextval</function> values are all
distinct, not that they are generated purely sequentially. Also,
<literal>last_value</literal> will reflect the latest value reserved by
any session, whether or not it has yet been returned by
<function>nextval</function>.
