-如果参数解析成功，则为 parser 返回的 Namespace；如果参数解析失败，则为 [`ParserExit`](../api/exception.md#ParserExit) 异常，并携带错误码与错误信息。通过重载机制即可处理两种不同的情况。
+如果参数解析成功，则为 parser 返回的 Namespace；如果参数解析失败，则为 [`ParserExit`](../api/exception.md#ParserExit) 异常，并携带错误码与错误信息。在前置词法解析失败时，返回值也为 [`ParserExit`](../api/exception.md#ParserExit) 异常。通过重载机制即可处理两种不同的情况。
 
 由于 `ArgumentParser` 在解析到 `--help` 参数时也会抛出异常，这种情况下错误码为 `0` 且错误信息即为帮助信息。
