Hi,

I noticed a few typos when reading version 16 of the JLS
<https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se16/html/index.html>. Here they
are:

   - In 6.5.1
   <https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se16/html/jls-6.html#jls-6.5.1>,
   in the non-normative box, "The extraction of a TypeName from the
   identifiers of a ReferenceType in the *16* contexts above" should say
   *17* contexts.
   - In Example 8.3-1
   <https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se16/html/jls-8.html#d5e13591>,
   instead of  "Multipl*y* Inherited Fields," I believe the title should
   say "Multipl*e* Inherited Fields."
   - In 7.2
   <https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se16/html/jls-7.html#jls-7.2>,
   in the last sentence of the example/non-normative box, instead of "in *a*
   identifier" it should say "in *an* identifier."

Thanks for your time.
