Abstract In this paper, we consider the question of definability of types in non‐stable theories. In order to do this we introduce a notion of a relatively stable theory: a theory is stable up to Δ if any Δ‐type over a model has few extensions up to complete types. We prove that an n ‐type over a model of a theory that is stable up to Δ is definable if and only if its Δ‐part is definable.
