correspondientes

Correspondientes is the plural form of the Spanish adjective correspondiente. It denotes that something corresponds to, matches, or is appropriate in relation to another thing, indicating a link, relation, or parallelism between two elements. It is used across domains to specify items that belong together or that have a designated counterpart.

In everyday language, correspondiente is used with a noun to designate the set or items that relate to a given context. Examples include documentos correspondientes (the relevant or accompanying documents), costos correspondientes (the related costs), or personas correspondientes (the appropriate people). The phrase signals that the referenced items are the ones that pertain to a particular situation or claim.

In mathematics and related sciences, correspondiente appears in phrases like elementos correspondientes (corresponding elements) within mappings or relations, where pairs are linked by a defined rule. In geometry, ángulos correspondientes (corresponding angles) are angles formed when a transversal intersects parallel lines and are congruent.

In academic publishing, autor correspondiente (corresponding author) refers to the author designated to handle communication with the journal during the submission and peer-review process. The plural autores correspondientes describes multiple authors who share this responsibility.

Variations and related terms include the noun correspondencia (correspondence) and other forms that indicate matching, alignment, or relation. While superficially simple, the use of correspondiente and correspondiente(s) depends on context, gender, and number to accurately convey the intended relation between elements in a sentence.
