I asked something like: Did he eat that last piece of cake he is not even hungry.

And my mind answers: Probably he doesn’t want that piece go to waste.

It happen most of the time. Do we have a good definition of what kind of phenomenon is this?

What you’re describing is ‘inner monologue.’ Yes, it’s normal, but at the same time, not everyone thinks in words. Some people think in images, or concepts.

Some people actually have no inner monologue at all.

The weirdest thing is that some people can’t hear their own voice in their head… I hear my voice the whole time I am typing this out

It’s called “Inland empire” and it’s essentially your gut feeling. Spec points into it for more humorous dialogue.

Thinking. At times, when you present yourself with a question like you are being interviewed, or reliving a presentation you did and the “teacher” asks you a question, you are simulating your brain and thus reaching an answer.

Your question is your line of thinking, hence why asking the right questions is often related to intelligence — it allows you to reach a correct answer quicker, as opposed to just throwing random questions and hoping one sticks.
