-Linguistics-

[Scythe_RS]

So I was really high the other day ( I know that's probably a terrible way to start of a SFA post but...) and I was thinking about this : When I think inside my head, I see it as a series of words, in English, that constitute my thought processes. For example, when I think about doing something I see the words in my head "I'll go do (insert action here)." But, the point of all this is that I was wondering what people who are deaf or more importantly blind from birth see in their heads. I'm especially interested in the blind. What does the thoughts of a blind person consist of?

i do not see anything when i think
i almost hear a voice with no actual voice, if u get my meaning


i would assume that blind people would focus on sound and perhaps feel(braille) and deaf people would focus on sights (sign language) and perhaps mouth movements(hard to speak without hearing, required practice and understanding, this would also be increased by lip reading).
