Relativismo lingüístico

Relativismo lingüístico, or linguistic relativity, is the idea that the language we speak influences how we think and perceive the world. It suggests that different languages shape unique perspectives and cognitive patterns, meaning that people’s worldview can vary based on their language. For example, words and grammatical structures may affect how we categorize colors, emotions, or time. While not claiming that language limits our ability to think, it highlights that language can subtly influence our understanding and interpretation of reality.
