- <p>The <key>Menu</key> key, also known as the <em>Application</em> key, is
- a key found on modern Windows-oriented keyboards. This key can usually be
- found on the bottom-right of the keyboard, next to the <key>Ctrl</key> key,
- but it can be placed in a different location by keyboard manufacturers. Its
- symbol is usually a small icon depicting a pointer hovering above a menu like
- this <media type="image" mime="image/svg" src="figures/keyboard-key-menu.svg"

- <p>The primary function of the key is to launch a context menu with the
- keyboard rather than with the usual right-mouse button. So it is a good
- alternative when a mouse or an equivalent device is not avalaible, or when
- the right-mouse button is not present.</p>
+ <p>The primary function of this key is to launch a context menu with the
+ keyboard rather than by clicking the right mouse button: this is useful if
+ mouse or a similar device is not available, or when the right mouse button is
+ not present.</p>
<p>The <key>Menu</key> key is sometimes omitted in the interest of space,
particularly on portable and laptop keyboards. In this case, some keyboards
include a <key>Menu</key> function key that can be activated in combination
with the Function (<key>Fn</key>) key.</p>
+ <p>The <em>context menu</em> is a menu that pops up when you right-click. The
+ menu that you see, if any, is dependent on the context and function of the
+ area that you right-clicked. When you use the <key>Menu</key> key, the
+ context menu is shown for the area of the screen that your cursor is over at
+ the point when the key is pressed.</p>
