Alternative means an option, a variant, a choice. Something from set of elements. So alternative is an element.

In the article there is example with JSON below.

value //set = value, 
    object // alternative from set value
    array // and this one
    string // same here
    number // ...
    "true" // ...
    "false" // ...
    "null" // ...

All types (bool,string, int whatever) are also a set and alternatives is all valid values.

P.S. Grammars are hard concept.
