+Macros are useful when one wishes to extend the Hy or write their own
 language on top of that. Many features of Hy are macros, like ``when``,
 ``cond`` and ``->``.
 
+To use macros defined in a different module, it is not enough to
+``import`` the module, because importing happens at run-time, while we
+would need macros at compile-time. Instead of importing the module
+with macros, it must be ``require``d:
