Ambiguity[edit]

Consider the following sentence:

Ke Lingling is the ex-wife of Xi Jinping, who now lives in Great Britain.

Who lives in Great Britain? Ke Lingling or Xi Jinping? Different people will read this differently, and I don't think either way of reading it is definitive. And of course, anyone who knows anything about China knows that Xi cannot be living in the UK. But the point is, it is ambiguous and could confuse a reader.

But that sentence does not appear in this article. It is this sentence that I am concerned with:

Ke Lingling is the ex-wife of Xi Jinping, who is now the General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and known as the paramount leader.

The same ambiguity exists. I know, few people will be confused, but it made me do a double take when I read it, as I thought someone had mistakenly written that Ke Lingling is the GenSec. I am going to rewrite the sentence to hopefully remove the ambiguity. Un school 15:40, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
