Coffee and Cigarettes

Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf stated that language does not define a culture or mind set but ideas of logic, observation and state of mind are defined by the context of the language. Americans, and English speakers alike, are use to using metaphors and filling our conversation with facts; such as places, times, examples and other's who where there. According to the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, people from 90% of the other languages would not understand this since they use the process of events not facts, they also believe that knowledge is not owned by any one person, unlike their English speaking counter parts who copyright and patten everything to make sure that everyone knows who this information belongs too.
Words don't even necessarily have a certain meaning. They get their meaning from the collective agreement on the association of a spoken sound to an object. If everyone gives slightly different meanings to words this should mean that every person on earth sees the world very differently. Though I don't think that this is biologically backed up since Whorf believed that the Hopi Indians could only see six colours since only six of them were given names, and in theory they would not be able to distinguish green from blue or purple from red; and in short of being colour blind we can all see the same colours.
If this is true, I wonder I how differently I see the world from everyone else. Hmm, my anthropological rant seemed to become a philosophy.
