Re: [ox-en] No more money trickery propaganda please



I have no native tongue per se so when I think I don't think in words.
There are many people like me and it may be the norm for all I know.

The closest way to describing it is "I stare at something, most likely
something totally unrelated like the ceiling or my laptop screen or
anything, and all the sudden patterns emerge non-visually and
non-audibly and all I can feel is that there is something going on in
my mind, i.e. a felt experience of commotion or patterns emerging and
coming together, unraveling or destroying each other, and then I start
writing down or drawing some idea or scheme.

Where is "language" in that?

Background:
We've been moving around from place to place since I was 2 years old,
and eventually at age 15 we settled in English speaking countries but
English was only as a written medium for me (i didn't socialize much
until I was 27) so I have 10 years total of English as a spoken
language and only fragmented ability to speak two foreign languages
besides English.

I don't hear words or narratives when I "think" unless I am parsing a
written sentence or constructing one. It's easy with maths and
software since it's all symbolic (non-spoken, except labels, numbers
and variables)

You can't explain water with water. "Thinking" is not defined. it's a


ok, but you can say that think is mediated by language

some people "thinks" that you can think rationaly without  language

I do not. I dont know if we can speak of science by now, or only about
prescientific hipotesis
