- defen 12y ago"Whorfer" = adherent of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, which (very roughly) says that language structure and vocabulary influences or determines what thoughts can be thought. e.g. if your language does not have a word for "yellow", do you classify colors the same way as someone who speaks a language that does?
