 ============
 
 Branch Weight Metadata represents branch weights as its likeliness to be taken
-(see :doc:`BlockFrequencyTerminology`). Metadata is assigned to the
-``TerminatorInst`` as a ``MDNode`` of the ``MD_prof`` kind. The first operator
-is always a ``MDString`` node with the string "branch_weights".  Number of
-operators depends on the terminator type.
+(see :doc:`BlockFrequencyTerminology`). Metadata is assigned to an
+``Instruction`` that is a terminator as a ``MDNode`` of the ``MD_prof`` kind.
+The first operator is always a ``MDString`` node with the string
+"branch_weights".  Number of operators depends on the terminator type.
 
 Branch weights might be fetch from the profiling file, or generated based on
 `__builtin_expect`_ instruction.
