Abstract
The aim of this B.A. thesis is to delve into how language shapes thought with a specific focus on the influence of grammatical gender in Croatian. By building upon Marijana Gašparović’s (2021) study on the same topic, this B.A. thesis aims to explore whether Croatian speakers tend to be influenced by the nature of the Croatian language’s gendered nature when assigning names to inanimate objects. To achieve this, first I will discuss what linguistic relativity is, linking it to Neo-Whorfianism and explaining what Gašparović’s Rethinking Linguistic Relativity: An Experimental Study Among Croatian Speakers (2021) study was about. Afterwards I will delve into explaining how the experiment was conducted, and I will also discuss the results. This research contributes to the greater discourse on linguistic relativity by offering new insights from a Slavic language where gender is embedded deeply into the core of the language.
