I don't get your point. It's a truism to say without language there
wouldn't be a "world" because the word "world" is cast in language.
There's plenty of experience, knowledge and understanding that occurs
without language of any kind. In fact, the MOQ is based on an
assumption of pre-verbal world of pure experience we're confronted with
all the time.
