There is this sentence at the very beginning of Annex P:

"This Annex summarizes the complete syntax of the language. See 1.1.4 for a description of the notation used."

And RM 1.1.4(14) says: "If the name of any syntactic category starts with an italicized part, it is equivalent to the category name without the italicized part. The italicized part is intended to convey some semantic information. For example *subtype*_name and *task*_name are both equivalent to name alone."

My invention to use * as an indication of italics that I can't use here.
