melluransaI already posted something about this. Language gives shapes to our thoughts, and shapes concepts, schemas, organization, categories, perception, emotion, and so much more. Language is seriously a huge chunk of how we think. It defines our entire world.
But it doesn't define everything, and we don't need it. It just helps; a LOT. Like the article ends with, words help us remember things. Like counting out loud. If you lose your place counting, just remember what word you just said and it's not that hard, you have the motor memory of yourself saying that word, and the auditory feedback of what you just sounded like saying it, and that's a huge headstart to remembering.
