Abstract

In the paper, the problem with the translation of ordinary mathematical structures from the natural language into the formal one is identified. As a concrete example of the system I used the Mizar system, the interactive proof assistant for the formalization of mathematics. Chosen testbed, both for new developments, and for revising old ones, was the theory of \(\mathbb Z\)-modules.
