Animals dream and have no word, so articulate language is not necessary to dream and may be to think.

Yes, there have been numerous studies that have shown a strong connection between dreams and language. Research has found that language centers in the brain are active during REM sleep, the stage in which most dreams occur. Additionally, brain imaging studies have shown that the same regions of the brain that are responsible for processing language are also activated during dreaming.
Yes, our dreams can be influenced by the languages we speak. Studies have shown that individuals who are bilingual or multilingual may experience different dream content depending on the language they speak. For example, a person who speaks both English and Spanish may have dreams that incorporate elements of both languages.
Language can play a role in dream recall, as individuals who are more proficient in a language are more likely to remember and understand the content of their dreams. This is because language allows us to process and make sense of our thoughts and experiences, including those that occur during dreaming.
While research on this topic is ongoing, some studies have suggested that dreams may play a role in language learning. Dreams may help with language acquisition by reinforcing vocabulary and grammar, as well as providing a safe environment for practicing new language skills without fear of making mistakes.
Many theories of dream interpretation rely on the use of language to make sense of the symbols and themes present in dreams. Language allows us to assign meaning and significance to our dreams, and can help us understand the underlying messages and emotions that our dreams are trying to communicate.
