In my opinion
Deaf individuals think in the same language as their primary language of communication. If they were born deaf or became deaf before acquiring a spoken language, their thoughts may be in a sign language, such as American Sign Language (ASL) or British Sign Language (BSL). Sign languages are complete, natural languages with their own grammar and vocabulary. It's important to note that not all deaf individuals use sign language as their primary means of communication. Some may use spoken language, lip-reading, or a combination of methods. In such cases, they may think in the language they are most comfortable with or the language they use most frequently in their daily lives. Additionally, it's worth mentioning that individuals who were not born deaf but acquired deafness later in life may continue to think in the language they were most proficient in before losing their hearing. The specific language can vary depending on their background, education, and personal experiences. ![]() Netshild - 28 JAN⬏ ![]() Brox - 30 JAN⬏ ![]() AD UNTIL - 21 MAR ⬏ ADVERTISE YOUR SERVICE | RESERVE ANY SPOT YOU WANT https://cracked.sh/showthread.php?tid=1398515

Sign language is a visual-spatial language that uses hand gestures, facial expressions, and body movements to convey meaning. When thinking, they may visualize signing or imagine themselves engaged in sign language conversations. However, it's important to note that not all deaf people use sign language as their primary language. Some individuals may use a combination of sign language and spoken language, while others may primarily use written language or a form of communication called "total communication," which involves a combination of sign language and spoken language. Additionally, for deaf individuals who acquire spoken language through hearing aids or cochlear implants, they may think in the spoken language they are most comfortable with. Their thinking process may involve visualizing or internally articulating the words and sentences in their mind. It's crucial to recognize that the thinking process varies among individuals, and deaf people, like anyone else, can have thoughts that are not solely based on language but encompass visual, sensory, and conceptual representations. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Feel free to check out the following links: ⪦ General Rules | Posting Rules | Marketplace Rules ⪧ ⪦ Anti Leeching | Upgrade | Terms of Service ⪧ |
