I like you OP.

>> No.2840020

I live in Europe and I think in English.

I think it's because I watched so many movies when I was little (my VHS collection is of some 3000 movies).I started when I was was 14 and now that I am 19 I pretty much think in English all the time.

QED English is the language of thought itself.

Is it strange that very little of my thought is in language?

Like, I have to consciously start a monologue with myself, otherwise it's not language.

No, I'm the same. I also don't think in pictures.

?!

So what do you use to think?

I see that animals don't use language to think and decide their actions per se, but not having a big vocabulary surely limits my thinking on certain subjects.
