In a paper just published in Science, Peter Gordon of Columbia University uses his study of the Piraha and their counting system to try to answer a tricky linguistic question. The Piraha, a group of hunter-gatherers who live along the banks of the Maiei River in Brazil, use a system of counting called "one-two-many". In this, the word for "one" translates to "roughly one" (similar to "one or two" in English), the word for "two" means "a slightly larger amount than one" (similar to "a few" in English), and the word for "many" means "a much larger amount". This question was posed by Benjamin Lee Whorl in the 1930s. Whorl studied Hopi, an Amerindian language very different from tile Eurasian languages that had hitherto been the subject of academic linguistics. His work led him to suggest that language not only influences thought but, mo A. Gordon’s purpose in his study of the Piraha was to solve a language problem. B. The Piraha would use the word "many" to describe the number "twenty". C. Linguists had studied other languages before they switched to Hopi. D. Whorf claimed that language did more than influence people’s thought. 查看答案 更多"Text 4 In a paper just pu"的相关试题: [单项选择]Text 4 In a paper just published in Science, Peter Gordon of Columbia University uses his study of the Piraha and their counting system to try to answer a tricky linguistic question.
