This time, my comments are not to bother or offend you. Not even so that

you change your mind, though you might agree with some.

There is no such thing as wordless thinking, once your thought process

needs any conceptual ground you will need a language. Therefore your

thought process and your language are intimately linked. So much so that

we create special languages for special needs, such as Math,

programming, etc. Now I believe that if your language is imprecise, then

your thought process will tend to be imprecise. You can rarely be good

with bad tools, and if you are, it will be much harder to be. And

language is the tool for thinking.

Because of that I must completely disagree with your post.
