 Step by step:
 
 - First we look for an opening quote `pattern:"`
-- Then if we have a backslash `pattern:\\` (we technically have to double it in the pattern, because it is a special character, so that's a single backslash in fact), then any character is fine after it (a dot).
+- Then if we have a backslash `pattern:\\` (we have to double it in the pattern because it is a special character), then any character is fine after it (a dot).
 - Otherwise we take any character except a quote (that would mean the end of the string) and a backslash (to prevent lonely backslashes, the backslash is only used with some other symbol after it): `pattern:[^"\\]`
 - ...And so on till the closing quote.
