 .. method:: regex.match(string)
+            regex.search(string)
 
-.. method:: regex.search(string)
+   Similar to the module-level functions :meth:`match` and :meth:`search`.
+   Using methods is (much) more efficient if the same regex is applied to
+   multiple strings.
 
 .. method:: regex.split(string, max_split=-1)
 
+   Split a *string* using regex. If *max_split* is given, it specifies
+   maximum number of splits to perform. Returns list of strings (there
+   may be up to *max_split+1* elements if it's specified).
 
 Match objects
 -------------
 
-Match objects as returned by ``match()`` and ``search()`` methods.
+Match objects as returned by `match()` and `search()` methods.
 
 .. method:: match.group([index])
 
-   Only numeric groups are supported.
+   Return matching (sub)string. *index* is 0 for entire match,
+   1 and above for each capturing group. Only numeric groups are supported.
