Briefly define the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis and analyze the following example in terms of the hypothesis: Shu-Hwi was invited to a Chinese speaker's home for dinner and she was asked by the host if she wanted more soup

The word "no" as in "no thank you," does not have a direct translation in Chinese. Shu-Hwi could say, "bu yao (not want)," but that would be considered rude and immature.
