I think in pictures and sounds, words are just pictures of symbols, but generally all words come to me by sound or purely intuitive impression. I often feel like I am translating my symbolic sight in to words.
I also do not experience memories directly in the first person, they are all primarily third person as though I am an observer now going back and watching myself, but then I can choose to merge with my previous self to get a first person experience while maintaining a third person perspective and outlook. This is one reason it is challenging for me to discern between past lives and this life because it all appears the same in my mind, I do not have an experience of my memories of this life that is distinct from any other memory or imagination. Rather it is reason and context which allows me to organize the context and contents of my memories.
