Kevin Wilfong commented on HIVE-701:
------------------------------------
AND, OR, and NOT also seem to be big contributors.
The warnings bring up a good point, e.g. if you run SELECT distinct col FROM
... are you selecting a column named distinct and aliasing it as col or are
your trying to select distinct values of the column called col
> lots of reserved keywords in hive

> There is a problem if we want to use some reserved keywords:
> for example, creating a function of name left/right ? left/right is already a
> reserved keyword.
> The other way around should also be possible - if we want to add a 'show
> tables status' and some applications already use status as a column name,
> they should not break
