Abstract

The results of the research show that only two types of speech — description and reasoning — can be taken into account in a scientific text, because the narrative is more related to biographical facts, the course of personal experiments, information from the history of science, etc. With this approach, we can assume that the speculation (argument) is always modally colored, and the description is modally neutral, i.e. the speculation is a strong marked member of the opposition, and the description is a weak unmarked one. It is argued that, unlike the description, speculation will always include a characteristic of truth / untruth, authenticity / unreliability of knowledge.
