I guess I'm mostly visual. Quite often when I'm thinking about something I'm not aware of what language I'm using, so I can't be using any particular words. People who think in word are usually slow in responding, but I never need to think what to say before I say it, and I never need to choose a language before I open my mouth. I don't really think with emotions (does that even work?). I'm pretty much only emotional when I'm dreaming, or taking showers. My logical thoughts suppress them otherwise.

Whatever it takes to deal with the situation at hand in the most effective way.
