AbstractThis chapter focuses on a body of research falling under the cover term linguistic relativity. More generally, linguistic relativity studies investigate possible effects of natural language on purportedly non-linguistic cognition. The chapter begins with a historical background of linguistic relativity.

Annual Review of Anthropology, 1997
The linguistic relativity hypothesis, the proposal that the particular language we speak influences the way we think about reality, forms one part of the broader question of how language influences thought. Despite long-standing historical interest in the hypothesis, there is relatively little empirical research directly addressing it.

The Many Facets of Linguistic Relativity
2021A pesar de su aparente simplicidad, la relatividad lingüística es un complejo de ideas y su formulación sufre de una equivocidad en el uso de sus dos términos clave “lenguaje” y “pensamiento”. Resulta de coordinar dos premisas, ninguna de las cuales la implica por separado: la tesis del impacto cognitivo del lenguaje (que puede defenderse desde una ...

Linguistic description of relative positions in images
IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, Part B (Cybernetics), 2001Fuzzy set methods have been used to model and manage uncertainty in various aspects of image processing, pattern recognition, and computer vision. High-level computer vision applications hold a great potential for fuzzy set theory because of its links to natural language.

Linguistic Relativity and Abstract Words
Paradigmi, 2019Abstract words (e.g. freedom, truth) differ from concrete ones (e.g. table) because linguistic experience is more crucial for their acquisition and representation. In previous work we proposed that the linguistic input is more pivotal to learn abstract than concrete concepts, because the members of the first are less perceptually similar and more ...

There are more than six thousand human languages, each one unique. For the last five hundred years, people have argued about how important language differences are. This book traces that history and shows how language differences have generally been treated either as of no importance or as all-important, depending on broader approaches taken to human ...
