According to the priciples of linguistic relativism, meaning depends on the structure of each particular language and its cultural context. This idea goes against the convinction that behind linguistic diversity exists a conceptual repertoire where the semantic roots of different languages converge:a common human mind. This article explores three aspects of linguistic relativism: its genealogy, the reason of its controversial status and its impact on the contemporary paradigm of linguistic sciences.
