Neurolinguists have explained the mechanism of thoughts and inner speech
Inner monologues are considered to be an imitation of overt speech. However, for a long time, the study of inner speech was difficult because people in studies expressed their thoughts in words, even if they were not actually thinking in words. Most thoughts actually happen in the background, without our knowledge, and there is no way to turn these things off. A few years ago, scientists from MIT (USA) discovered that Broca’s area in the human brain actually consists of two sections. One is responsible for speech, the other is activated when solving problems that require serious mental effort. This contradicts the hypothesis that without language there is no thinking.
