>>  -- Command: c-set-offset (‘C-c C-o’)
>>      This command changes the entry for a syntactic symbol in the
>>      current binding of ‘c-offsets-alist’, or it inserts a new entry if
>>      there isn’t already one for that syntactic symbol.

>>      You can use ‘c-set-offsets’ interactively within a CC Mode buffer
                                 ^

>>      to make experimental changes to your indentation settings.  ‘C-c
>>      C-o’ prompts you for the syntactic symbol to change (defaulting to
>>      that of the current line) and the new offset (defaulting to the

>>      ‘c-set-offsets’ takes two arguments when used programmatically:
                     ^

There are a couple of extraneous letters 's' in the marked locations.
