what do people who have been deaf their whole life sound like when they think?? how do they even know what to expect words to sound like

I would imagine it would be the same as how they read. When we read we tend to hear the sounds, but I suppose a deaf person doesn't.
I guess they just see text in their mind perhaps, or sign language. But I wonder how a deaf illiterate thinks. I suppose it's mostly visual.

i can't pin down what my voice in my head sounds like. it changes a lot depending on if i'm thinking about it in the first place, like reading. or typing this, for that matter. i think in fragments, which is why i type like that. ill send messages over steam in chunks really fast. it'll end up being like 15 messages for a paragraph. typically, i have to talk with people to think through something in depth. otherwise there's just music in my head
