: Production // how to produce this rule
| AlternativeProduction // alternative production
; // end of rule

Rule
: '[' ']' // ' quoted strings must match in the source text
| OtherRule // Identifier reference to other rule
| FirstRule SecondRule // FirstRule has to match first, than SecondRule. 
                      // Both may consume Characters of the source code
;

Rule
: [ OptionalRule ] OtherRule // parts bracket with [ ] are optional
| (XRule YRule)* // ( ) groups rules, * matches 0 - n times
| ZRule+ // + matches 1 - n times
;
