In his new book* Michael Wolf asks: "If natural languages deeply influence the forms that our thinking takes, could they be so different that we 'live' in substantially 'different worlds'?" My blog of 15 June 2022 lists some of the alternate realities that exist. But I don't think that language is as important a factor in this as Wolf does.
