 To determine the objects where variables can point to, we first need to describe what an object is.
 During runtime a program can allocate multiple objects using the `new ...` expression at a single location in the program.
-Since we are statically analyzing a program we need to approximate object allocation and we do that by representing objects by their allocation size, that is the program location where an object is allocated using a `new ...` expression.
+Since we are statically analyzing a program we need to approximate object allocation and we do that by representing objects by their allocation site, that is the program location where an object is allocated using a `new ...` expression.
 
 Write a query to find all allocation sites by looking for the `new ...` expression.
