Claims about how language choice, language mixing, and multilingual ability affect reasoning processes or performance in large language models. Excludes multilingual model behavior unrelated to reasoning.

Enforcing monolingual chain-of-thought reasoning lowers reasoning accuracy in language models.

In DeepSeek's RL ablation on DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B, chain-of-thought language consistency declines without an LC reward but stays stable with one.

Language mixing reduces human readability of reasoning models' chains of thought.
