 the :mod:`gettext` module, but use the C library's binary format for message
 catalogs, and the C library's search algorithms for locating message catalogs.
 
 Python applications should normally find no need to invoke these functions, and
 should use :mod:`gettext` instead.  A known exception to this rule are
 applications that link with additional C libraries which internally invoke
-:c:func:`gettext` or :func:`dcgettext`.  For these applications, it may be
+:c:func:`gettext` or :c:func:`dcgettext`.  For these applications, it may be
 necessary to bind the text domain, so that the libraries can properly locate
 their message catalogs.
