Data will be lost if, within a single polling interval, two switches are pressed, or a switch is pressed, released, and pressed again.

Polling ( often called scanning in this case ) is done by activating each x line in sequence and detecting which y lines then have a signal, thus which keys are pressed.

These tones are then decoded by the switching center to determine which key was pressed.
