| With each Bravais lattice point, one can associate a set of atoms called the basis. The smallest region of the crystal | ||

| that are closer to a given lattice point than to any other. | ||
| Often, instead of the primitive cell, the conventional cell is used, which is built on different basis vectors | ||
| and whose symmetry is the same as the symmetry of the entire crystal. | ||
| % **[REVIEW NEEDED]**: "conventional cell" vs. "unit cell" - verify preferred terminology for "komórka elementarna" |

W tym przypadku dobry wybór . Nazewnictwo zależy jednak od kontekstu . Nie jest to sztywna zasada , czasem lepsza będzie wersja "unit cell". Musisz pytać w razie wątpliwości @copilot

Review marker removed in commit d22c803. I'll ask when terminology choice is unclear in future translations.
