-SQL queries are specified using the `sql()` method of the
`TableEnvironment`. The method returns the result of the SQL query as a `Table`
which can be converted into a `DataSet` or `DataStream`, used in subsequent
Table API queries, or written to a `TableSink` (see [Writing Tables to External
Sinks](#writing-tables-to-external-sinks)). SQL and Table API queries can
seamlessly mixed and are holistically optimized and translated into a single
DataStream or DataSet program.
+Flink supports specifying DataStream or DataSet programs with SQL queries
using the `sql()` method of the `TableEnvironment`. The method returns the
result of the SQL query as a `Table`. A `Table` can be used in subsequent SQL /
Table API queries, be converted into a `DataSet` or `DataStream`, or written to
a `TableSink` (see [Writing Tables to External
Sinks](common.html#emit-to-a-tablesink)). SQL and Table API queries can
seamlessly mixed and are holistically optimized and translated into a single
program.

I would not mention the translation into DataStream and DataSet programs
(see another comment below).
