I don't have a word-based internal dialogue. When it's time to use words, like writing this post, sure, it's word time, so words are used.

But if I'm just reading, I just take in chunks and phrases while constructing a meaning model. The sounds themselves (or even individual words) don't really enter into it.

That’s really fascinating and very different from my experience.

It’d be a really interesting project to measure and classify people’s individual thinking mechanisms. That daemon that seems to exist at the boundary of the conscious and unconscious.

Then again, maybe we wouldn’t want that as yet another data point to be bought and sold.
