问答题 Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis(4 points)
【正确答案】正确答案:This hypothesis suggests that our language helps mould our view of the world. The hypothesis has two versions,(i)linguistic determinism—language may determine our thinking patterns and(ii)linguistic relativity—similarity between languages is relative, and the greater their structural differentiation is, the more diverse their conceptualization of the world will be. Thus, two versions of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis have been developed, a strong version and a weak version.
