 ### Control Retrying
 
-If the bottom chunk write out fails, it will remain in the queue and Fluentd will retry after waiting several seconds (`retry_wait`). If the retry limit has not been disabled (`retry_forever` is true) and the retry count exceeds the specified limit (`retry_max_times`), the chunk is trashed. The retry wait time doubles each time (1.0sec, 2.0sec, 4.0sec, ...) until `retry_max_interval` is reached. If the queue length exceeds the specified limit (`queue_limit_length`), new events are rejected.
+If the bottom chunk write out fails, it will remain in the queue and Fluentd will retry after waiting several seconds (`retry_wait`). If the retry limit has not been disabled (`retry_forever` is false) and the retry count exceeds the specified limit (`retry_max_times`), **all chunks in the queue are discarded**. The retry wait time doubles each time (1.0sec, 2.0sec, 4.0sec, ...) until `retry_max_interval` is reached. If the queue length exceeds the specified limit (`queue_limit_length`), new events are rejected.
 
 NOTE: writing out the bottom chunk is considered to be a failure if "Output#write" or `Output#try_write` method throws an exception.
