"or [i]n the article does anybody mention the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis" The name "Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis" may not literally appear but the whole article is obviously about it: This question goes back to an idea by the American linguist Benjamin Whorf, who suggested that our language determines how we perceive the world. There have been other recent discoveries in favor of the hypothesis posted here as well. I've felt for a long time that Sapir-Whorf will be rehabilitated; it doesn't make sense that something so fundamental as language wouldn't have cognitive effects. |
