People who are deaf from birth are unable to imagine sounds, in the same way that you can't imagine what seeing infrared or ultraviolet would be like.
However, people who lost their hearing later in life - even if they were young at the time - will have some memories of sound, and the brain pathways and memories associated with them. They may even dream with sound.
Deaf people can "hear" their thoughts, but will "hear" them as sign language, as a sequence of mental gestures.

Sure they can, if they're not born deaf. Beethoven, my idol, wrote some of his most famous music, including the 9th symphony, when he was completely deaf. He conceptualised the music in his head.

yes but their thoughts are not articulated in our minds like we do. they are more abstract.

Of course they can, they're deaf not brain dead. Block your ears off- are you still able to know what you're thinking ?

of course deaf ppl can "hear" their own thoughts. just because a person can't hear, doesn't mean they don't have working, thinking brain. everyone has an internal dialog or "voice" they converse with.
