 That's all! When calling the `json` constructor with your type, your custom `to_json` method will be automatically called.
-Likewise, when calling `get<your_type>()` or `get_to(your_type&)`, the `from_json` method will be called.
+Likewise, when calling `template get<your_type>()` or `get_to(your_type&)`, the `from_json` method will be called.
 
 Some important things:
 
 * Those methods **MUST** be in your type's namespace (which can be the global namespace), or the library will not be able to locate them (in this example, they are in namespace `ns`, where `person` is defined).
 * Those methods **MUST** be available (e.g., proper headers must be included) everywhere you use these conversions. Look at [issue 1108](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/1108) for errors that may occur otherwise.
-* When using `get<your_type>()`, `your_type` **MUST** be [DefaultConstructible](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/DefaultConstructible). (There is a way to bypass this requirement described later.)
+* When using `template get<your_type>()`, `your_type` **MUST** be [DefaultConstructible](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/DefaultConstructible). (There is a way to bypass this requirement described later.)
 * In function `from_json`, use function [`at()`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/basic_json/at/) to access the object values rather than `operator[]`. In case a key does not exist, `at` throws an exception that you can handle, whereas `operator[]` exhibits undefined behavior.
 * You do not need to add serializers or deserializers for STL types like `std::vector`: the library already implements these.

 That's all! When calling the `json` constructor with your type, your custom `to_json` method will be automatically called.
-Likewise, when calling `get<your_type>()` or `get_to(your_type&)`, the `from_json` method will be called.
+Likewise, when calling `template get<your_type>()` or `get_to(your_type&)`, the `from_json` method will be called.
 
 Some important things:
 
 * Those methods **MUST** be in your type's namespace (which can be the global namespace), or the library will not be able to locate them (in this example, they are in namespace `ns`, where `person` is defined).
 * Those methods **MUST** be available (e.g., proper headers must be included) everywhere you use these conversions. Look at [issue 1108](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/1108) for errors that may occur otherwise.
-* When using `get<your_type>()`, `your_type` **MUST** be [DefaultConstructible](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/DefaultConstructible). (There is a way to bypass this requirement described later.)
+* When using `template get<your_type>()`, `your_type` **MUST** be [DefaultConstructible](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/DefaultConstructible). (There is a way to bypass this requirement described later.)
 * In function `from_json`, use function [`at()`](../api/basic_json/at.md) to access the object values rather than `operator[]`. In case a key does not exist, `at` throws an exception that you can handle, whereas `operator[]` exhibits undefined behavior.
 * You do not need to add serializers or deserializers for STL types like `std::vector`: the library already implements these.
