People without an inner voice have poorer verbal memory
humanities.ku.dk
The vast majority of people have an ongoing conversation with themselves, an inner voice, that plays an important role in their daily lives. But between 5-10 per cent of the population do not have the same experience of an inner voice, and they find it more difficult to perform certain verbal memory tasks, new research shows.

    I mean I can have an inner dialogue, but normally it goes straight onto the idea level of thinking and I don’t waste resources trying to shape it into words. I can do that, though.

      If you’re needing to explain those ideas to other people then it’s useful to expound

        Yes, of course the translation occurs while communicating, and I’m pretty good at putting my thoughts into words when I need it.
