cogito is usually used to refer to consciousness which then would be the root for the word cognition, but in some sort of context the phrase implies that it does mean thinking because in the meditation Descartes wasn't tryin prove he exist he was more inclined to proving that he was thinking his own thoughts

now to be fair the phrase cogito ergo sum wasn't from the mediations it was from an earlier work called the discourse

What you wrote is very impressive
Because in fact, he was talking about mind-body dualism, including that the sensory perception isn't something required for the senses to do, but it's a mere mind machinisim of clearing things up and understanding it. Linking his dualism with his theory about the conscious being the only controller of our psychological life (rejecting any psychological subconscious). Concluding all that in talking about perception as being the opposite of the doubt that had prevailed over him for a period of time.
