According to the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis, human thought and cognition are influenced by language; each language has its own world view and a close relationship with the social structure, history, and cultural background of a particular group. From the language of an ethnic group, we can understand the thought patterns and cultural connotations of this ethnic group.Within the Hakka dialect of Chinese are many 'kûng' and 'mà' words; 'kûng' originally meant 'male' and 'mà' originally meant female. However, there are some words that superficially do not have male or female connotations yet contain the distinction between 'kûng' and 'mà;' for example, phi-kûng (nose), hâ-kûng (shrimp), lit-mà (bamboo hat), and tô-mà (knife). This paper will investigate 'kûng' and 'mà' words in Hakka Chinese and, via the collation and analysis of words, further study the relationships between such gender-differentiated words and Hakka culture and the gender associations of the Hakka people.
