d. the linguistic relativity hypothesis

Explanation:

Linguistic relativity hypothesis -

According to this hypothesis, the language structure affects the view of the speakers and therefore the perceptions of the people are relative to the spoken language.

This is based on two versions, first the strong hypothesis and a weak hypothesis.

hence, from the information of the question, the correct answer is (d). the linguistic relativity hypothesis.
