Thinking is better done in writing. And the language in which you write affects the scope of the thoughts you can think -- absence or presence of vocabulary for certain concepts, degree of precision of word nuances, etc. Until Cicero, no one would do philosophy in Latin.
In his translations (from Greek, the language of philosophy), Cicero often had to resort to long expressions to convey the meaning of a single term. He had to introduce entirely new words -- he had to invent the Latin vocabulary necessary for philosophy.
This reminds me of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_relativity …
Mathematical notation and software languages are much more precise ways of capturing concepts than language, which lacks precision of definitions, agreed interpretations and rules of combination. That's why philosophers prefer words.

But which language do you find most productive? I’m bilingual and speak one other language well enough to think in, and find that certain topics lend themselves naturally to one language or another. I’m always curious to compare notes with others w/ similar experiences.
Curious. What's the other language and which topics lend better to which? I'm trilingual, great at 2 languages but find myself mostly thinking in English..
