Does language shapes our thoughts?

Do you think that language you use shapes your thoughts? This has been a controversial issue in linguistics but in behavioural science we make sense of it rather easily.

Take a page that you have written, count active and passive verbs:
Then analyse the number of times you did not convert your autonomy into agency ?

Do you think those who don’t use active sense too often will be induced to take action on issues they feel strongly about?

Will appreciate some younger scholars & practibioers to do some exercises and then debate on this point; we want more people in current turbulent times feel responsible for their inclusive feelings & take action on them.

Those who don’t share inclusive philosophy are often acting more vigourously, why are the rest more inactive ? Has language to do something with it?

Look forward to hearing from you

Thank you for a good debate
Your Organizations can be transformed if we unravel this mystery !!!!
