They make sense to me as an English speaker. CREATE TABLE more or less has a *description* of the table to be created, while ALTER TABLE contains *actions* to take. ADD COLUMN, DROP COLUMN, INHERIT. They are sub-commands. In normal conversation you might say "Jane rides the bus to work." But if you want to change that, you might say "Jane, ride your bicycle to work." -Kevin
