But the catch is precisely that this is not a list of words, and shouldn't
form a proper written sentence at all (joining by spaces means it is also
not a proper sentence in English). It is more like an "expanded listbox".
One could also think of it as sequence of little images in a row.

Of course, if such solution/explanation is not at all admissible for a
certain language, then we should figure out a more formal, language-
dependent way for formatting keyword sequences.
