    .. method:: execute(sql, parameters=(), /)
 
-      Execute SQL statement *sql*.
-      Bind values to the statement using :ref:`placeholders
-      <sqlite3-placeholders>` that map to the :term:`sequence` or :class:`dict`
-      *parameters*.
+      Execute SQL a single SQL statement,
+      optionally binding Python values using
+      :ref:`placeholders <sqlite3-placeholders>`.
 
-      :meth:`execute` will only execute a single SQL statement. If you try to execute
-      more than one statement with it, it will raise a :exc:`ProgrammingError`. Use
-      :meth:`executescript` if you want to execute multiple SQL statements with one
-      call.
+      :param str sql:
+         A single SQL statement.
+
+      :param parameters:
+         Python values to bind to placeholders in *sql*.
+         A :class:`!dict` if named placeholders are used.
+         A :term:`!sequence` if unnamed placeholders are used.

+      :type parameters: :class:`dict` | :term:`sequence`
+
+      :raises ProgrammingError:
+         If *sql* contains more than one SQL statement.
 
       If :attr:`~Connection.isolation_level` is not ``None``,
       *sql* is an ``INSERT``, ``UPDATE``, ``DELETE``, or ``REPLACE`` statement,
       and there is no open transaction,
       a transaction is implicitly opened before executing *sql*.
 
+      Use :meth:`executescript` to execute multiple SQL statements.
 
    .. method:: executemany(sql, parameters, /)
 
-      Execute :ref:`parameterized <sqlite3-placeholders>` SQL statement *sql*
-      against all parameter sequences or mappings found in the sequence
-      *parameters*.  It is also possible to use an
-      :term:`iterator` yielding parameters instead of a sequence.
+      For every item in *parameters*,
+      repeatedly execute the :ref:`parameterized <sqlite3-placeholders>`
+      SQL statement *sql*.
+
       Uses the same implicit transaction handling as :meth:`~Cursor.execute`.
 
+      :param str sql:
+         A single SQL :abbr:`DML (Data Manipulation Language)` statement.
+
+      :param parameters:
+         An :term:`!iterable` of parameters to bind with
+         the placeholders in *sql*.
+         See :ref:`sqlite3-placeholders`.
+      :type parameters: :term:`iterable`
+
+      :raises ProgrammingError:
+         If *sql* contains more than one SQL statement,
+         or is not a DML statment.
