摘　　要："萨丕尔—沃尔夫假说"涵盖了两个基本观点:语言决定论(强势假说)和语言相对论(弱势假说)。本文通过讨论"萨丕尔—沃尔夫假说"所涵盖的两个基本观点对语言与思维二者之间的关系进行探讨,得出结论:语言不对思维起决定性作用,语言影响思维。同时也着重分析了强势假说的不足之处,即语言不能束缚人们对客观世界的认识,也不能决定人们的世界观,人类的思维在感性、认知、社会和社会心理方面具有广泛的共同之处。Sapir-Whorf hypothesis covers two basic viewpoints:linguistic determinism(the strong version)and linguistic relativity(the weak version).This paper tries to explore the relationship between language and thinking through an overview of these two basic viewpoints covered by Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis,and a conclusion is drawn:language doesn’t determine thought but influence it.Then the paper focuses on analyzing the deficiency of the strong version of this hypothesis,namely,language cannot fetter people’s understanding of the objective world,neither can it determine people’s outlook on the world,and human thinking has a broad common ground in perception,cognition,society and social psychology.

关 键 词：“萨丕尔一沃尔夫假说” 语言决定论 语言相对论
