Welcome to devrant. A place of joy, Happiness, and FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

I had this yesterday but then differently. Selected something AS desc. Took me about half an hour to find out :/

@marceliwac iirc desc(ending) and asc(ending) are parameters in a query to describe how the output should be sorted. But my SQL is 4 or 5 years old by now so don't trust me.

@marceliwac used to order the output of the query. For example, select * from table order by id desc - would order the result set with ids starting at the largest and descending. The error is caused here because attempting to select the desc column will result in the SQL parser resolving it as an order instead of a column name, which throws errors. Select desc from table would fail, where select `desc` from table would succeed.
