             Two restrictions apply to the use of ``region``:
 
             - If ``region`` is set, _all_ variables in a dataset must have at
               least one dimension in common with the region. Other variables
-              should be written in a separate call to ``to_zarr()``.
+              should be written in a separate single call to ``to_zarr()``.
             - Dimensions cannot be included in both ``region`` and
               ``append_dim`` at the same time. To create empty arrays to fill
               in with ``region``, use a separate call to ``to_zarr()`` with
