Apologies if this isn't spelt correctly - I took a wild stab!

What this means is that you automatically connect colours and images to words. For me (for example):

Monday is red
Tuesday is pale blue/grey
Wednesday is brown
Thursday is pale blue/grey
Friday is navy blue
Staturday is sky blue
Sunday is orange/yellow

What colours are your days of the week/months/people's names etc.

And if you thought that it was your own particular foible to do this you'll probably be pleased to hear that you have a reasonably rare (totally harmless) recognised medical "condition". You are one out of 2,500 people and you're probably female.

It's all to do with connections in your brain going the wrong way!

I get that sometimes - "tree" tastes hollow, "blue" pulls my eyes out of my head... Actually "blue" is a good one, different shades of blue taste, smell and feel different. Navy blue is really smooth. Electric blue tastes like blood. Light teal smells like ham.

Synaesthesia is just a mixing up of the senses, not necessarily colours connected to words. It is also linked to higher than average intelligence, and can be a by-product of mental disorders such as schiz. or BPD. Fine line between genius and madness etc. :)

iv herd of this
it sounds odd but it seams quite harmless

however lots of songs use colours as discriptions of emotions
so perhaps its not so rare
