This article analyzes the issue of the use of hedging markers in scientific articles on economics, written in Russian and Turkish, in terms of the cooperative principle of G. P. Grice, as well as the Neo-Gricean principles formulated on its basis. The purpose of the article is to identify the features of the use of hedging markers, which implement these principles, by Russian-speaking and Turkish authors. Their interrelation with such hedging functions as building an implicit dialogue with the reader, reducing the categoricity of scientific propositions, achieving a high degree of accuracy of the scientific text, as well as contributing to the construction of an argumentative strategy by the researcher within the framework of the design of the results of scientific work is noted.
