The paper explores the concept that language actively shapes our perception of reality rather than merely reflecting it. It emphasizes the role of vocabulary, particularly color terminology, in constructing our understanding of the world. By arguing that the spectrum of colors is not strictly divided into primary categories, the author highlights how linguistic choices influence our cognitive frameworks and experiences. The work is rooted in systemic functional linguistics and presents a nuanced view of the interplay between language and reality.
