I occasionally run into issues with how FG parses wording. For example in backgrounds if I say "Choose two from" followed by a list of skills FG does not parse it correctly until I change it to "Choose two from among"
Are these wordings a standard from WoTC or FG? And, are these documented somewhere?
Thanks

It's all hardcoded in the rulesets I believe. You'll have to unzip those files and search for keywords to find where.

Yes, such wording is 'hard coded'. See here for some information https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?48739-5e-Class-Background-Race-Feat-interpreted-strings
