Re: [mizar] grammatical error in message for error #21

The error message for error code 21 is
"The structure of sentences disagrees the scheme"
That's ungrammatical; the preposition "with" is needed before "the
scheme" if the verb is "disagree", and in any case "sentences" needs a
definite article before it. The error message thus should be
something like
"The structure of the sentences disagrees with the scheme"
or maybe
"The structure of the sentences does not fit the scheme".
Many thanks for this correction. But I'm afraid there are still more such
"Pol-glish" examples in the 'mizar.msg' file that should definitely be
polished - it seems they are there to make the cryptic explanations even
less informative ;-)
Well, it's great to have English native-speakers among the users - if you
encounter any other explanations that you find equally unacceptably
ungrammatical, please let us know ;-)
Best,
