Small grammar issue in 'langmap'/'langremap' help

Reading the help on 'langmap' today, I encountered this

Also consider resetting 'langremap' to avoid 'langmap'
applies to characters resulting from a mapping.

Despite reading this multiple times, I'm not quite sure what this is
trying to say. Confusion includes

- what does it mean to "reset"? (usually "reset" for a setting means
`set langmap&`, but in this case it defaults to *on*, so resetting
would do the opposite of what is intended). This also applies in
the help for 'langremap' where it says "reset in defaults.vim")

- the grammar of "applies" is peculiar.

Maybe something like

Also consider setting 'nolangremap' to prevent 'langmap'
from applying to characters used in a mapping.

in the help for 'langmap', and

boolean (default on, turned off in defaults.vim)

for the help on 'lrm'.

Thanks!
