+Buffers are the basic unit of data transfer in GStreamer.  The GstBuffer type
 provides all the state necessary to define a region of memory as part of a
-stream.  Sub-buffer are also supported, allowing a smaller region of a
+stream.  Sub-buffers are also supported, allowing a smaller region of a
 buffer to become its own buffer, with mechanisms in place to ensure that
 neither memory space goes away.  Metadata is supported as a list of
 pointers to arbitrary metadata.
