To me, it seems like vocabulary definitely has an effect. My native tongue is Finnish, but I find it easier to discuss (and think) some things in English because English has more specific vocabulary in certain areas. It's not that is impossible to express these things in Finnish, but it sort of feels uncomfortable. It's also difficult to separate a language from its culture, so that might be another reason it feels so compelling to think that languages influence your thoughts. My internal thoughts switch between Finnish, English and sometimes Japanese depending on context.
