    Answer:C. the linguistic relativity hypothesis.

    Explanation:

    The Linguistic Relativity Hypothesis, which is famously referred to as Sapir-Whorf. It is based on how structure our ones langauge influences how we perceive and interact with the world around us. Every person's own langauge shapes the world around them and the rest of the world in a different way because it can determine how they interact with other cultures different from their own. It may also hinder the ability to actual understand other cultures that exist apart from their own culture.

    Each langauge defines the values of one's culture and its origin and shapes their cognitive perspectives.
