As much as "beginning" is. You can't have a thought without a word, can you now ?
Quoting: *Siberia* You can think in something other than words.. Thinking in words is the imagination of speech, but there's also the imagination of the other senses that are also thoughts right? Quoting: Hermit Seb You can think in images - no problem. The images will form a concept which would be worded anyway. So, as much as you would chase the tail for the pleasure of satisfying a point of view, you'd come back through the process of decoding images into concepts building thoughts and ascribe them words to carry them into frequency. You know damn well how this work Quoting: *Siberia* Well here we'll have to disagree to agree, because there actually are people who do not think in words, conceptually.. We use these words as our symbols, but other symbols could be used to represent elements of reality that you are discriminating... Anyway I am pretty sure the word doesn't come first, the nebulous cloudy subconscious notion of tree that comes before you think the word tree is itself based off a number of other concepts, and the tip of the iceburg is the label applied to this conceptual notion, the label "Tree". Granted this is all very subtle and quick. What do you think? The word tree or "vague image of tree" when you think of a tree?
