-				Returns a [SceneTreeTimer] which will [signal SceneTreeTimer.timeout] after the given time in seconds elapsed in this [SceneTree].
+				Returns a [SceneTreeTimer] which will emit [signal SceneTreeTimer.timeout] after the given time in seconds elapsed in this [SceneTree].
 				If [param process_always] is set to [code]false[/code], pausing the [SceneTree] will also pause the timer.
 				If [param process_in_physics] is set to [code]true[/code], will update the [SceneTreeTimer] during the physics frame instead of the process frame (fixed framerate processing).
 				If [param ignore_time_scale] is set to [code]true[/code], will ignore [member Engine.time_scale] and update the [SceneTreeTimer] with the actual frame delta.
