+Domain names can represent one of
+
+- `/dns4` - domain resolves to an ipv4 address (**default**)
+- `/dns6` - domain resolves to an ipv6 address
+- `/dnsaddr` - domain has a [DNSLink](https://docs.ipfs.io/guides/concepts/dnslink/) TXT record pointing to an IPFS CID
+
+This library assumes `/dns4` when it finds a domain name in the input string.
+It makes no attempt query DNS. To override the default assumption, you can pass
+in an options object as the second parameter to override it:
+
+```js
+const toMultiaddr = require('uri-to-multiaddr')
+
+console.log(toMultiaddr('https://protocol.ai'), {defaultDnsType: 'dnsaddr'})
 // -> /dnsaddr/protocol.ai/https
 ```
 
-* See [test.js](./test.js) for the currently supported conversions.
-* Might be lossy - e.g. a DNSv6 multiaddr
-* Can throw if the passed URI:
-    * is not a valid
-    * is not supported yet e.g. quic
+See [test.js](./test.js) for the currently supported conversions.
+
+**Note**: `uri-to-multiaddr` will throw if the passed URI:
+  - is not a valid, according the WHATWG URL spec implementation used.
+  - is not supported yet e.g. quic
