+# Combine - Combine PerKey

Review comment:
       It's this way in both the [Java](https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/learning/katas/java/Core%20Transforms/Combine/Combine%20PerKey/task.md) and [Python](https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/learning/katas/python/Core%20Transforms/Combine/Combine%20PerKey/task.md) task descriptions.  I don't mind deviating so perhaps just "Combine per key" as the header?

+# Combine - Combine PerKey
+
+After creating a keyed PCollection (for example, by using a GroupByKey transform), a common pattern 
+is to combine the collection of values associated with each key into a single, merged value. This 
+pattern of a GroupByKey followed by merging the collection of values is equivalent to Combine 
+PerKey transform. The combine function you supply to Combine PerKey must be an associative 
+reduction function or a subclass of CombineFn.

Review comment:
       Apologies, I missed that.  Would it be clear if we just remove "or a subclass of CombineFn" such that the full sentence reads:  "The combine function you supply to beam.CombinePerKey must be an associative reduction function"?
