14. La lingua cambia il modo di percepire il mondo? L'ipotesi di Sapir-Whorf e la relatività linguistica

Questo episodio esplora l'ipotesi di Sapir-Whorf e la relatività linguistica, concentrandosi sul modo in cui le lingue possono influenzare la nostra percezione e comprensione del mondo. Oggi parliamo della storia del legame tra lingua e pensiero, esaminando come la struttura linguistica possa plasmare la nostra cognizione e la nostra relazione con la realtà circostante, e vediamo sopratutto cosa ci dicono i dati sperimentali.
