The relational aspect of language can be studied from multiple approaches, as argued by Lorés-Sanz, Mur-Dueñas and Lafuente-Millán (2010), Sancho Guinda, Gotti and Breeze (2014), among others, including methods of discourse and conversational analysis, critical discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, and pragmatics. The nature of this phenomenon often makes it advisable to describe it from more than one perspective that can account for both its form and meaning, as well as the function they fulfil and the reason why a specific marker is chosen in a specific discursive moment, such as the act of persuasion (Orts and Breeze 2017, p. 10).

It is reasonable to think that, in addition to attested politeness devices in women’s early technical writing, a web of relational markers is used, which may or may not present variation according to the contextual variables of situation and culture (register and textual genre) and possibly time. This hypothesis, although it reflects a linguistic fact to be expected in any speaker, does not rule out the possibility that women, depending on the time and their social situation, may use markers similar to those used by men, although it is expected that there is a set of markers, as seen in the study by Alonso-Almeida and Álvarez-Gil (2022), which are specific to non-literary writing by women. All of this would allow us to show more clearly the role that women have historically played in the construction of scientific thought.
