15、a language puzzle that Eskimos have a huge number of words for snow. The idea was popularized by the now well-known expert Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s. His number was approximately five Eskimo words for snow, but somehow the story was so wide spread and romantic that it got out of control and gr
16、ew bigger and bigger. There are two problems with the concept of Eskimos having tons of words for snow. First, Eskimos speak at least two different languagesInuit and Yupik. Just as we have talked about how English and many other languages developed from a common language called Proto-Indo-European,
17、 Inuit and Yupik come from a different common language called Eskimo-Aleut. So saying Eskimos have 100 words for snow is like saying Europeans have 100 words for kings or queens. It might be telling you something broad about culture, but it isnt really telling you much about language. The second pro
18、blem is What is a word?” The Inuit and Yupik languages make words in different ways from how we make words in English. For example, the West Greenlandic word siku, (sea ice), is used as the root for sikursuit (pack ice), Sikuliaq (new ice), and sikurluk (melting ice). But its not that West Greenland
19、ic has so many more words for describing snow than English, its just that West Greenlandic expresses ideas by combining meaningful units of language together into one word while English uses more phrases and compounds. We express all the same ideas; we just do it a little differently because of the
20、way our language is built. So youre probably still wondering, If its not 50 or 100 or 400 words, how many is it? Well, Woodbury lists 15 that are present in a Yupik dictionary published in 1984, but he says that depending on how you look at it this is not an exact number. It could be 12; it could be
21、 24. But its certainly not 100. Sometimes, the hundred words for snow puzzle is used to argue that because Eskimos have so many words for snow, they think about snow in ways that we cant even begin to imaginethat your language decides or limits your thoughts. Languages are just different. They dont
22、decide what we are able to think about or are not able to think about. I can think about snow floating on water even if we dont have a word for that in English. So when youre out skiing or snowboarding or just shoveling your driveway this winter, dont believe the people who try to tell you that Eski
23、mos have 100 words for snow.(1)Why are Eskimos thought to have so many words for snow?Because snow is everywhere where Eskimos live.Because the story about it got enriched and believed.Because snow is of great importance to Eskimos.Because Eskimos have great affection for snow.(2)How does the writer
24、 explain the first problem?By presenting figures.By making comparisons.By quoting sayings.By adopting idioms.(3)The example of the west Greenlandic word siku shows that . the making of words varies from language to languagethe Inuit and Yupik languages have more words for snowthe richness of words a
25、nd phrases leads to different ideasmore phrases about snow are found in the English language(4)What conclusion can we safely draw from the last two paragraphs?Eskimos better understand snow than other people.Languages deeply influence peoples ability to think.There is no point counting Eskimos expressions for snow.
