Did you try going through http://us.metamath.org/mpeuni/mmset.html#traditional and http://us.metamath.org/mpeuni/mmset.html#distinct ? I suspect that might be closer to what you are looking for than those papers.

As for the MM1 video, I totally agree. Although I've learned to do things in mmj2 and am OK with living with its quirks, when I saw the MM1 video my reaction was some version of "oh yeah, that's what all this stuff should be".

Hello there friends.

I emailed this group some months ago about learning discrete math using Metamath. That thread persuaded me to double down on studying with Lean. I made some progress with Lean, but it is monolithic and I have too many gaps in my understanding to continue making progress there.

I approached Metamath again and found that the tooling was really bad. Then I watched Mario's MM0 and MM1 video. The MM1 proof assistant is awesome. All the simplicity of Metamath with a modern interface. Wow. So I started using the MM1 proof assistant (along with Mario's set.mm0). I've managed to prove many useful theorems in propositional logic, but I'm having trouble understanding the non-traditional form of predicate logic that comes with set.mm.

Are there any resources to help beginners learn the "finitely axiomatized" predicate calculus? I tried to read Norm's paper on the subject, but it is incomprehensible to me. I also tried to read Tarski's paper, but it is behind a paywall. Is there any simple mapping of Norm's system to the natural deduction version of predicate logic I already know?

Thanks for the help!
