All of which can be quite useless to someone unfamiliar with the document who's uncertain what words the standard uses in connection with the relevant rule. For the record, the relevant grammar rule is in 6.4.5, "String literals", paragraph 1 on page 70. However, the key part of that rule is "escape sequence", and you need to go back to 6.4.4.4p1 to learn the specific grammar rules for escape sequences that actually explain this behavior.
