I have no idea what that "natural English" is supposed to mean. Is the function name "to union" with an included space or is "to" a reserved word which is looking for a module named "union" which it finds because the "to" in the function definition is ignored?

And besides that, won't

SetC = SetA & SetB

work? It seems to meet the requirements of natural English. One can certainly add a single variable to a list that way. Well, perhaps duplication of elements is a problem. . . but my real question is the syntax.
