Sumario:Petrus Hispanus discusses relation in two different contexts of the Tractatus. The first context is treatise III, about categories. The second is treatise VIII, where he theorizes the relative terms inside the context of supposition and the properties of terms. In this paper, after identifying Petrus Hispanus's theories and sources, the two contexts are compared with each other. It is concluded that there are similarities of treatment between the two different issues and that they are a shortcut to understand metaphysical tendencies. Also, in what concerns a specific kind of relative terms - relatives of diversity - there is a clear distinction between reference and supposition, which opens a space to some kind of mediation between things and language.
