 # SELECT syntax
 
-The queries in DataFusion scan data from tables and return 0 or more rows.
-Please be aware that column names in queries are made lower-case, but not on 
the inferred schema. Accordingly, if you
-want to query against a capitalized field, make sure to use double quotes. 
Please see this
-[example](https://datafusion.apache.org/user-guide/example-usage.html) for 
clarification.
-In this documentation we describe the SQL syntax in DataFusion.

-<code class="language-sql hljs">
-
-[ [WITH](#with-clause) with_query [, ...] ] <br/>
-[SELECT](#select-clause) [ ALL | DISTINCT ] select_expr [, ...] <br/>
-[ [FROM](#from-clause) from_item [, ...] ] <br/>
-[ [JOIN](#join-clause) join_item [, ...] ] <br/>
-[ [WHERE](#where-clause) condition ] <br/>
-[ [GROUP BY](#group-by-clause) grouping_element [, ...] ] <br/>

-[ [QUALIFY](#qualify-clause) condition] <br/>
-[ [UNION](#union-clause) [ ALL | select ] <br/>

Review Comment:
   We could, although I think this needs more discussion. We don't implement 
the exact SQL spec, of course -- we add extensions from places like DuckDB, 
Postgres, and so on, and there are major parts of the SQL spec that we also 
don't implement. I'm not sure if it will be helpful to users if we just 
reference the SQL spec.
