Research on the Influence of Human Language on the Formation and Development of Thinking

The SapirWhorf Hypothesis has aroused great interest among anthropologists, linguists, and psychologists since its proposal. This article delves into the important role of human language in the formation, development, and application of thinking through the literature review and questionnaire survey. The main target of the study is the 0-50 year-old population whose native language is Chinese. An electronic questionnaire survey was conducted to reveal the close relationship between language and thinking. Research has found that language not only serves as a carrier of thinking but also plays a crucial role in shaping and driving the development of thinking. In this context, this article aims to systematically analyze the impact of language on thinking, in order to provide new perspectives and thoughts for research in related fields.
