English(EN) Where meanings converge and diverge: Revisiting linguistic relativity across 81 languages

新研究利用多语言模型重新审视萨丕尔-沃尔夫假说

作者 PulseAugur 编辑部 · [1 个来源] · 2026-10-23 04:00

一篇新的arXiv论文通过使用多语言模型的词嵌入，比较了81种语言的概念结构，从而对萨丕尔-沃尔夫假说进行了研究。研究发现，与自然和运动相关的意义相比，社会文化意义在跨语言上的对应性更强。社会文化概念中的关系差异随着地理距离的增加而增大，这表明共享的认知资源与语言和当地经验相互作用。 AI

影响为理解语言如何影响概念组织提供了见解，这对于开发更细致的多语言AI模型具有参考意义。

Where meanings converge and diverge: Revisiting linguistic relativity across 81 languages

arXiv:2610.30778v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Do people who speak different languages organize concepts in similar ways? This question lies at the heart of the Sapir--Whorf hypothesis and debates about linguistic relativity. Shared basic meanings, however, need not imply shared…
