 ### debounce
 
-Creates a debounced function that delays invoking the provided function until after `wait` milliseconds have elapsed since the last time the debounced function was invoked.
+Creates a debounced function that delays invoking the provided function until at least `ms` milliseconds have elapsed since the last time it was invoked.
 
-Use `setTimeout()` and `clearTimeout()` to debounce the given method, `fn`.
-Use `Function.apply()` to apply the `this` context to the function and provide the necessary `arguments`.
-Omit the second argument, `wait`, to set the timeout at a default of 0 ms.
+Each time the supplied function is invoked, clear the current pending timeout with `clearTimeout()` and use `setTimeout()` to create a new timeout that delays invoking the function until at least `ms` milliseconds has elapsed. Use `Function.apply()` to apply the `this` context to the function and provide the necessary arguments.
+Omit the second argument, `ms`, to set the timeout at a default of 0 ms.
