I have the same 5, except in place of 1 I have something linguistic but not auditory. I can break it down into a stream of “words” in an order but there isn’t sound (nor visible words). The stream follows English grammar basically, and the “words” have English parts of speech but do not always correspond easily to English (or any other language I know) words. Sometimes there’s a translation but it’s not obvious to me, nor do my thoughts slow down thinking of it.
I can usually convert most of these thoughts into words by a paraphrase or translation, but I remember when I was a kid having many thoughts that I could memorize and repeat to myself but not successfully express in external language. A few of the most important ones I can remember now and translate.
