在其最極端的版本,薩丕爾-沃爾夫假說可以形容有關兩個關聯原則: 語言決定論和語言相對論。 Whorfian 論文應用這兩項原則,是講不同語言的人感知和對世界的看法很不一樣,他們的世界觀被塑造或由文化 (遭到社會決定論概念) 的語言。 評論家注意到,我們能做出推論關於靠語言結構的差異的世界觀的差異。

In its most extreme version 'the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis' can be described as relating two associated principles: linguistic determinism and linguistic relativism. Applying these two principles, the Whorfian thesis is that people who speak different languages perceive and think about the world quite differently, their worldviews being shaped or determined by the language of the culture (a notion rejected by social determinists). Critics note that we cannot make inferences about differences in worldview solely on the basis of differences in linguistic structure.
