    nothing...you just think images.

    imagine how hard it would have been to start a language.

    I agree.

    Language is means of communication. Your thoughts are communicated throughout your brain via synapses. Whether in pictoral form or not. Bees communicate, Cavemen communicated. Every animal capable of cognitive thought communicates. Language is a very broad term.

    Without language there could be no thought.

    Done. Can't tell you what it is though .

    It's relativley easy to prove, a perfect example stated by Manker. Bees "dance" to communicate with each other, yet they have no word based language....unless you define dancing as language.
