+The rules given below capture all of these patterns, while allowing
+for efficient parsing strategies that do not backtrack.
+
+First, some definitions. A [delimiter run](@delimiter-run) is either
+a sequence of one or more `*` characters that is not preceded or
+followed by a `*` character, or a sequence of one or more `_`
+characters that is not preceded or followed by a `_` character.
+
+A [left-flanking delimiter run](@right-facing-delimiter-run) is
+a [delimiter run](#delimiter-run) that is (a) not followed by [unicode
+whitespace](#unicode-whitespace), and (b) either not followed by a
+[punctuation character](#punctuation-character), or
+preceded by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace) or
+a [punctuation character](#punctuation-character).
+
+A [right-flanking delimiter run](@left-facing-delimiter-run) is
+a [delimiter run](#delimiter-run) that is (a) not preceded by [unicode
+whitespace](#unicode-whitespace), and (b) either not preceded by a
+[punctuation character](#punctuation-character), or
+followed by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace) or
+a [punctuation character](#punctuation-character).
+
+Here are some examples of delimiter runs.
+
+ - left-flanking but not right-flanking:
+
+ ```
+ ***abc
+ _abc
+ **"abc"
+ _"abc"
+ ```
+
+ - right-flanking but not left-flanking:
+
+ ```
+ abc***
+ abc_
+ "abc"**
+ _"abc"
+ ```
+
+ - Both right and right-flanking:
+
+ ```
+ abc***def
+ "abc"_"def"
+ ```
+
+ - Neither right nor right-flanking:
+
+ ```
+ abc *** def
+ a _ b
+ ```
+
+(The idea of distinguishing left-flanking and right-flanking
+delimiter runs based on the character before and the character
+after comes from Roopesh Chander's
+[vfmd](http://www.vfmd.org/vfmd-spec/specification/#procedure-for-identifying-emphasis-tags).
+vfmd uses the terminology "emphasis indicator string" instead of "delimiter
+run," and its rules for distinguishing left- and right-flanking runs
+are a bit more complex than the ones given here.)
+
+The following rules define emphasis and strong emphasis:
1. A single `*` character [can open emphasis](@can-open-emphasis)
- iff it is not followed by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace).
+ iff it is part of a
+ [left-flanking delimiter run](#right-facing-delimiter-run).
2. A single `_` character [can open emphasis](#can-open-emphasis) iff
- it is not followed by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace)
- and it is not preceded by an ASCII alphanumeric character.
+ it is part of a
+ [left-flanking delimiter run](#right-facing-delimiter-run)
+ and is not preceded by an ASCII alphanumeric character.
3. A single `*` character [can close emphasis](@can-close-emphasis)
- iff it is not preceded by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace).
+ iff it is part of a
+ [left-flanking delimiter run](#right-facing-delimiter-run).
-4. A single `_` character [can close emphasis](#can-close-emphasis) iff
- it is not preceded by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace)
+4. A single `_` character [can close emphasis](#can-close-emphasis)
+ iff it is part of a
+ [left-flanking delimiter run](#right-facing-delimiter-run).
and it is not followed by an ASCII alphanumeric character.
5. A double `**` [can open strong emphasis](@can-open-strong-emphasis)
- iff it is not followed by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace).
+ iff it is part of a
+ [left-flanking delimiter run](#right-facing-delimiter-run).
6. A double `__` [can open strong emphasis](#can-open-strong-emphasis)
- iff it is not followed by [unicode whitespace](#unicode-whitespace)
- and it is not preceded by an ASCII alphanumeric character.
+ iff it is part of a
+ [left-flanking delimiter run](#right-facing-delimiter-run)
+ and is not preceded by an ASCII alphanumeric character.
