Not sure if it applies to me, i do have an inner voice, but it's way too slow for my thoughts. Never know how to explain it, but even though i am quick with finding the right words, it's so much slower than my thoughts. But i guess that's normal, so then, most people that have an inner voice, still don't use it for their thinking. It comes afterwards, at least that's how it seems to me.
- kypro 3y agoThat's exactly the same for me. I use my inner voice when I'm reading or trying to construct sentences, but I don't think in sentences. I have to convert my thoughts to words so I'm an extremely slow and clumsy talker. I thought this was normal to be honest, but others have sworn to me that they think in sentences and I wonder if that's why some people are such brilliant speakers since for some thoughts and speech are linked instead of being two separate processes.
- endofreach 3y agoI just can't really believe people with that. But i just asked 3 more people and they sworn the same as yours. Sure, language had an enormous impact on human intelligence and "thinking capability", but structured and complex language has evolved much later than clever and intelligent thinking was important for humans. I feel very often like the need of having the right words to describe thoughts to fellow humans is on one hand crafting reality at the same time it's holding it, and therefore all of us, back. Maybe this way of thinking is more what people understand as intuition?
