So if one's language acts as a medium for the way one percieves reality, does that mean that way back when in cultures of pre-history (ie, cultures that only had words of monosyllables or languages without vowels) did they really look at the world differently? I mean, there's culture-being-different, like Egyptians being entirely centered around death, but were they also different from modern society in other ways that aren't so tangible or easily grasped?
