How much does the language we speak shape the way we think and see the world? I grew up bilingual and noticed that I argue differently in each language—more direct in one, more polite in the other. Some researchers claim that grammar influences cognition, like how speakers of languages with gendered nouns perceive objects differently. But I'm not sure if that's just a cultural effect rather than a linguistic one. Have you experienced thinking differently when switching languages, and do you believe language truly molds thought, or is it the other way around?
