 Parameter methods:
 - `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.read()`: Get the current value of the parameter (alias for `value`)
-- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.write(new_value, force=False)`: Write a new value to the parameter. `force` will try to write even if the parameter is known as non-writable or out of known allowable range.
+- `Nucon.<PARAMETER>.write(new_value, force=False)`: Write a new value to the parameter. `force` will try to write even if the parameter is known as non-writable or out of known allowed range.
 
 Class methods:
 - `Nucon.get(parameter)`: Get the value of a specific parameter. Also accepts string parameter names.
-- `Nucon.set(parameter, value, force=False)`: Set the value of a specific parameter. Also accepts string parameter names. `force` will try to write even if the parameter is known as non-writable or out of known allowable range.
+- `Nucon.set(parameter, value, force=False)`: Set the value of a specific parameter. Also accepts string parameter names. `force` will try to write even if the parameter is known as non-writable or out of known allowed range.
 - `Nucon.get_all_readable()`: Get a list of all readable parameters (which is all parameters)
 - `Nucon.get_all_writable()`: Get a list of all writable parameters
 - `Nucon.get_all()`: Get all parameter values as a dictionary
