Answer to Question 1

In its most radical form the linguistic-relativity hypothesis asserts that language determines the possibilities for thought and action in any culture. The idea here is that we are perhaps unable to perceive phenomena for which we have no nouns or engage in actions for which we have no verbs. A more acceptable version of the hypothesis recognizes the mutual influence of culture and language, with neither wholly determining the other.

Answer to Question 2
