Some people see things in their head like a movie, while others use words to think. Imagine one person sees a cat jumping over a fence, and another hears the word 'cat' and thinks about what it means. This is because different parts of the brain are used for seeing and thinking with language.
Examples
- A child thinks about a unicorn by imagining it running through a rainbow.
- A person remembers a phone number by saying it out loud in their head.
- Someone solves a puzzle by moving the pieces around mentally.
