2/ Mein Lieblingslinguist Geoffrey Pullum hat schon in den 80ern darüber geschrieben, wo dieser Mythos herkommt. Die Kolumne ist auch in einem Buch mit dem gleichnamigen Titel erschienen: The great Eskimo vocabulary hoax.
Für alle, die sich irgendwie für Sprachwissenschaften oder auch Wissenschaft allgemein interessieren: #MustRead. Pullum ist der lustigste Linguist, den ich kenne.
#Whorf, Amateurlinguist: „What happened was that Benjamin Lee Whorf, Connecticut fire prevention inspector and weekend language-fancier, picked up Boas' example and used it, vaguely, in his 1940 amateur linguistics article 'Science and linguistics,' which was published in MIT's promotional magazine Technology Review (Whorf was an alumnus; he had done his B.S. in chemical engineering at MIT). Our word snow would seem too inclusive to an Eskimo, our man from the Hartford Fire Insurance Company confidently asserts.“
